Short summary
Atmospheric isoprene oxidation has an important effect on the formation of pollutants such as ozone and particles. A reliable representation is an essential component of climate change/air quality models. Systematic updates to the detailed chemistry in the MCM are described, with reference to recently reported kinetic/mechanistic data. Results of box model calculations are used to illustrate the impacts of the updates, with particular focus on the key atmospheric cycles involving HOx and NOx.
