Organic species are an important but poorly characterized constituent of airborne particulate
matter. A quantitative understanding of the organic fraction of particles (organic aerosol, OA) …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA), particulate matter composed of compounds formed from
the atmospheric transformation of organic species, accounts for a substantial fraction of …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) accounts for a significant fraction of ambient tropospheric
aerosol and a detailed knowledge of the formation, properties and transformation of SOA is …

In this study we compile and present results from the factor analysis of 43 Aerosol Mass
Spectrometer (AMS) datasets (27 of the datasets are reanalyzed in this work). The …

Organic aerosol (OA) data acquired by the Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) in 37 field
campaigns were deconvolved into hydrocarbon‐like OA (HOA) and several types of …

The application of mass spectrometric techniques to the real‐time measurement and
characterization of aerosols represents a significant advance in the field of atmospheric …

The organic aerosol (OA) dataset from an Aerodyne Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (Q-AMS)
collected at the Pittsburgh Air Quality Study (PAQS) in September 2002 was analyzed with …

Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are derived from particles emitted directly into the
atmosphere (primary emissions) or from the growth of nanometer-sized particles nucleated …

Biomass burning (BB) contributes large amounts of black carbon (BC) and particulate
organic matter (POM) to the atmosphere and contributes significantly to the earth's radiation …

The Amazon Basin plays key roles in the carbon and water cycles, climate change,
atmospheric chemistry, and biodiversity. It has already been changed significantly by human …
