Abstract. We present an evaluation of the regional chemical transport model (CTM) WRF-CHIMERE (v2020r2) for formation biogenic secondary organic aerosol (BSOA) with a focus over Finnish boreal forest. Formation processes aerosols are still affected by different sources uncertainties, and model’s predictions largely varies depending on levels details adopted emissions schemes. In this study, air quality simulations were conducted astronomical summer year 2019 using (OA) schemes (as currently available in literature) to treat BSOA.
