| Abstract | This work presents an analysis of model simulated aerosol concentrations over Southeast Asia, focusing on Malaysian Borneo during the time period of the ACES/OP3 measurement campaign. Model estimates of aerosol distributions and budgets are presented along with comparison to observations from plane flights. Further, there is extensive comparison of model estimated AOD to MODIS AOD for the region and time period of interest. A significant model bias relative to MODIS is noted, and sensitivity calculations (enhanced emissions / particulate formation) are found not to substantially reduce this bias. The article reads clearly and is well organized. While the authors encounter some interesting conundrums regarding model fidelity, these perhaps are not investigated in as much detail as could be, and the paper focuses more on cataloging the model results. Overall, I think it is nearly suitable for publication, though the scientific significance could be greatly enhanced from further analysis and interpretaC9429 |
