A chamber study was carried out to investigate the stable carbon isotopic composition
(δ13C) of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formed from ozonolysis of β‐pinene. β‐Pinene …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) plays a central role in air pollution and climate. However,
the description of the sources and mechanisms leading to SOA is elusive despite decades of …

The daytime oxidation of α‐pinene in the presence of natural sunlight and oxides of
nitrogen, NOx, was studied in a large outdoor smog chamber using gas chromatograph …

Highly oxygenated compounds assigned to be oxidation products of α‐pinene have recently
been observed in substantial concentrations in ambient aerosols. Here, we confirm the …

The temperature dependence of the kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of β‐pinene ozonolysis was
investigated experimentally at 258, 273 and 303 K in the AIDA atmospheric simulation …

Recent field and laboratory studies suggest that forest aerosol particles contain more highly
functionalized organic molecules than pinonic acid, a traditional molecular maker of …

At a rural site in the central Pearl River Delta (PRD) region in south China, fine particle
(PM2. 5) samples were collected during fall-winter 2007 to measure biogenic secondary …

The gas and particle phase reaction products of a mixture of the atmospherically important
terpenes α-pinene and β-pinene with the atmospheric oxidants O3 and OH/NOx were …

Highly reactive free radical species have been subject of many toxicological in vivo and in
vitro studies because of the oxidative cell damage they cause. Similar species have been …

Recent experimental studies have identified cis-pinic acid (a C9 dicarboxylic acid) as a
condensed-phase product of the ozonolysis of both α-and β-pinene, and it is currently …
