Accurate space-based NO_<i>x</i> emission estimates with the flux divergence approach require fine-scale model information on local oxidation chemistry and profile shapes by F. Cifuentes, F. Cifuentes, H. Eskes, E. Dammers, E. Dammers, C. Bryan, F. Boersma, F. Boersma

“…This merely reflects the fact that the local balance between emissions and sinks of <span class="inline-formula">NO_<i>x</i></span> occurs in the boundary layer, which is decoupled from the <span class="inline-formula">NO₂</span> in the free troposphere. Based on the recommendations from this sensitivity test, we then applied the FDA using observations of <span class="inline-formula">NO₂</span> columns from TROPOMI, corrected for contributions from free-tropospheric <span class="inline-formula">NO₂</span>, between 1 June and 31 August 2018. …”
