abstract = {Global coupled chemistry–climate models underestimate
carbon monoxide (CO) in the Northern Hemisphere, exhibiting
a pervasive negative bias against measurements peaking in
late winter and early spring. While this bias has been
commonly attributed to underestimation of direct
anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions, chemical
production and loss via OH reaction from emissions of
anthropogenic and biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
play an important role. Here we investigate the reasons for
this underestimation using aircraft measurements taken in
May and June 2016 from the Korea–United States Air Quality
(KORUS-AQ) experiment in South Korea and the Air Chemistry
Research in Asia (ARIAs) in the North China Plain (NCP). For
reference, multispectral CO retrievals (V8J) from the
Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) are
jointly assimilated with meteorological observations using
an ensemble adjustment Kalman filter (EAKF) within the
global Community Atmosphere Model with Chemistry (CAM-Chem)
and the Data Assimilation Research Testbed (DART). With
regard to KORUS-AQ data, CO is underestimated by $42 \%$
in the control run and by $12 \%$ with the MOPITT
assimilation run. The inversion suggests an underestimation
of anthropogenic CO sources in many regions, by up to
$80 \%$ for northern China, with large increments over the
Liaoning Province and the North China Plain (NCP). Yet, an
often-overlooked aspect of these inversions is that
correcting the underestimation in anthropogenic CO emissions
also improves the comparison with observational O3 datasets
and observationally constrained box model simulations of OH
and HO2. Running a CAM-Chem simulation with the updated
emissions of anthropogenic CO reduces the bias by $29 \%$
for CO, $18 \%$ for ozone, $11 \%$ for HO2, and
$27 \%$ for OH. Longer-lived anthropogenic VOCs whose
model errors are correlated with CO are also improved, while
short-lived VOCs, including formaldehyde, are difficult to
constrain solely by assimilating satellite retrievals of CO.
During an anticyclonic episode, better simulation of O3,
with an average underestimation of 5.5 ppbv, and a
reduction in the bias of surface formaldehyde and oxygenated
VOCs can be achieved by separately increasing by a factor of
2 the modeled biogenic emissions for the plant functional
types found in Korea. Results also suggest that controlling
VOC and CO emissions, in addition to widespread NOx
controls, can improve ozone pollution over East Asia.},
