The model results are compared with measurements at the CERN CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets) chamber. For the model we used experim ental data on SOA yields and molecular composition of first generation pro ducts from isoprene oxidation under conditions comparable to those of the experiments. The model uses surrogate molecular species such as monomers a nd dimers to represent the SOA formed.  Experimental SOA mass concentratio n and levels of isoprene reacted were used to determine branching ratios f or the model predictions. The branching ratios are adjustable parameters u sed to estimate the percentage of semi-volatile or low volatility monomer and dimer compounds formed from compounds predicted by the Master Chemical Mechanism. Model results for the yield and mass concentration are compare d with the experiments for cases with and without Ammonium sulfate seed. T he goal is to study the hygroscopic growth and partitioning of aerosols at varying RH for both seeded and non-seeded cases. To match the SOA mass yi eld and mass concentration calculated by the model with the experimental d ata for the seeded case\, the branching ratios of the monomers needed to b e adjusted. Results and possible reasons for the discrepancies will be dis cussed.\n DTSTART:20160316T190000Z DTEND:20160316T193000Z LOCATION:Room 934\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Student Seminar: Dalrin Ampritta Amaladhasan URL:/meteo/channels/event/student-seminar-dalrin-ampri tta-amaladhasan-255081 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
