Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) particles are a class of highly abundant atmospheric constituents that represent a substantial fraction of carbon within the climate system. A subset of naturally-occurring SOA particles are formed through atmospheric oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), forming oxygenated products of lower volatility that can partition...
Small hydrocarbons and their oxygenated derivatives are critical to atmospheric organic aerosol formation and growth. Secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) constitute a significant portion of total atmospheric organic aerosols, and are often generated through the oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as isoprene, -pinene, and -caryophyllene. Interfaces of SOA...
