abstract = {The global distribution and budget of atmospheric molecular
hydrogen (H-2)is simulated with a global Chemistry-Transport
Model (CTM). Surface emissions include technological sources
(industry, transportation and other fossil fuel combustion
processes), biomass burning, nitrogen fixation in soils, and
oceanic activity and totals 39 Tg/yr. The photochemical
production (31 Tg/yr) from formaldehyde photolysis accounts
for about $45\%$ of the total source of H-2. Soil uptake (55
Tg/yr) represents a major loss process for H-2 and
contributes for $80\%$ to the total destruction. H-2
oxidation by OH in the troposphere contributes the
remainder. The global burden of H-2 in the atmosphere is 136
Tg. Its overall lifetime in the atmosphere is 1.9 years. H-2
is rather well-mixed in the free troposphere. However, its
distribution shows a significant seasonal variation in the
lower troposphere where soil uptake dominates. This loss
process shows a strong temporal variability and is maximum
over the northern hemisphere landmass during summer. Strong
vertical gradients result from this surface uptake. In these
regions, H-2 varies by more than $30\%$ between the maximum
mixing ratio in winter and the summer minimum. Our results
stress the important role played by the tropics in the
budget of H-2. In these regions a strong seasonal cycle is
also predicted due to the annual variation in biomass
burning emissions, soil uptake, and rapid transport by
convection of H-2 depleted air masses from the boundary
layer to the upper troposphere. A comparison with the
observed H-2 distribution allows to test some of the model
predictions. Good agreement is found for the global burden
and the annually averaged latitudinal gradient in the
southern hemisphere and the tropics. A detailed comparison
of the seasonal cycles of H-2 in surface air indicates that
the use of the net primary productivity to prescribe the
seasonal and geographical pattern of soil uptake in the
model leads to an underestimate of the deposition velocity
during winter and spring over the continents in the northern
hemisphere.},
