Fractionation factor associated with oxygen escape. From top to bottom, the panels show 18fs-e, 18fph, 17fs-e, and 17fph. The definitions of these fractionation factors are described in Section 4.3. The horizontal axis is the fractional contribution of atomic oxygen to O-bearing escaping species, corresponding to α in Equation (4). The solid, dashed, and dotted blue lines represent the results obtained using the standard eddy diffusion coefficient, a coefficient one order of magnitude smaller, and a coefficient one order of magnitude larger, respectively. The black dashed–dotted horizontal lines in the second and fourth panels represent 18fph,esc and 17fph,esc, respectively.
