Radical-water complexes in Earth's atmosphere

In the atmosphere, many chemical processes are controlled by open-shell radical species. While these species are present in relatively small number densities, they initiate many of the cycles that control the chemistry of the atmosphere. The purpose of this Account is to examine recent studies of radical-water complexes that are composed of atmospherically important species. We hope this Account will provide a report on the status of this topical field, while encouraging new research directions.
