Short summary

Evaluation and uncertainty investigation of NO₂, CO and NH₃ modeling over China were conducted in this study using 14 chemical transport model results from MICS-Asia III. All models largely underestimated CO concentrations and showed very poor performance in reproducing the observed monthly variations of NH₃ concentrations. Potential factors related to such deficiencies are investigated and discussed in this paper.
