Biomass burning is an important source of aerosol and trace gases to the atmosphere, but
how these emissions change chemically during their lifetimes is not fully understood. As part …

We report the physical and chemical effects of photochemically aging dilute biomass-
burning smoke. A" potential aerosol mass"(PAM) flow reactor was used with analysis by a …

The chemical complexity of biomass burning organic aerosol (BBOA) greatly increases with
photochemical aging in the atmosphere, necessitating controlled laboratory studies to inform …

The formation of secondary organic aerosol from oxidation of phenol, guaiacol (2-
methoxyphenol), and syringol (2, 6-dimethoxyphenol), major components of biomass …

Biomass burning (BB) is a large source of primary and secondary organic aerosols (POA
and SOA). This study addresses the physical and chemical evolution of BB organic aerosols …

Biomass burning (BB) is one of the most important contributors to atmospheric aerosols on a
global scale, and wildfires are a large source of emissions that impact regional air quality …

After smoke from burning biomass is emitted into the atmosphere, chemical and physical
processes change the composition and amount of organic aerosol present in the aged …

Field studies in polluted areas over the last decade have observed large formation of
secondary organic aerosol (SOA) that is often poorly captured by models. The study of SOA …

Airborne measurements of biomass burning organic aerosol (BBOA) from boreal forest fires
reveal highly contrasting properties for plumes of different ages. These measurements …

The Multiple Chamber Aerosol Chemical Aging Study (MUCHACHAS) tested the hypothesis
that hydroxyl radical (OH) aging significantly increases the concentration of first-generation …
