Seasonally Dependent Daytime and Nighttime Formation of Oxalic Acid Vapor and Particulate Oxalate in Tropical Coastal and Marine Atmospheres by Le Yan, Yating Gao, Dihui Chen, Lei Sun, Yang Gao, Huiwang Gao, Xiaohong Yao

“…Specifically, concentrations were 0.059 ± 0.15 μg m⁻³ in February and April 2023, exhibiting consistent diurnal variations similar to those of O₃, likely driven by photochemical reactions. These values decreased to 0.021 ± 0.07 μg m⁻³ in November and December 2023, with higher nighttime concentrations likely related to dark chemistry processes, amplified by accumulation due to low mixing layer height. …”
