The high surface-to-volume ratio that is typical indoors makes surface chemistry and physics
particularly important to the study of air quality in these environments. However, surface …

Biogenic organic aerosols can affect cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) properties, and
subsequently impact climate change. Large uncertainties exist in how the difference in the …

Organonitrates (ON) and nitroxy-organosulfates (NOS) are important components of
secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). Gas-phase reactions of α-pinene (C10H16), a primary …

Photoionization detectors (PIDs) are lightweight and respond in real time to the
concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making them suitable for …

Molar absorption coefficients were measured for select alkyl nitrates and β-hydroxyalkyl
nitrates in methanol. The presence of the β-hydroxyl group has a relatively minor effect on …

Organonitrates (ON) are important components of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). α-
Pinene (C10H16), the most abundant monoterpene in the troposphere, is a precursor for the …

The atmospheric oxidation mechanism of sabinene initiated by the OH radical has been
studied using quantum chemistry calculations at the CBS-QB3 level and reaction kinetic …

A denuder/filter apparatus was used to collect the gaseous and particulate reaction products
from ozonlysis of α-pinene, limonene and α-terpineol in an effort to develop sampling …

Biodegradation of α-pinene was investigated in a biological thermophilic trickling filter, using
a lava rock and polymer beads mixture as packing material. Partition coefficient (PC) …

The paper overviews the current state of knowledge regarding the origin, formation
mechanisms, properties and atmospheric implications of organic sulfates (organosulfates …
