Ecosystems and the atmosphere: This review describes the state of understanding the
processes involved in the exchange of trace gases and aerosols between the earth's surface …

The natural environment is a major source of atmospheric aerosols, including dust,
secondary organic material from terrestrial biogenic emissions, carbonaceous particles from …

The budget of atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is very uncertain, with recent
estimates suggesting a global source of between 12 and 1820 Tg (SOA) a− 1. We used a …

The oceans contribute significantly to the global emissions of a number of atmospherically
important volatile gases, notably those containing sulfur, nitrogen and halogens. Such gases …

Terpenoids, or isoprenoids, are a family of compounds with great structural diversity which
are essential for all living organisms. In cyanobacteria, they are synthesized from the …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are widely recognized to affect the environment and
human health. This review provides a comprehensive presentation of the types and levels of …

Knowledge of the physical characteristics and chemical composition of marine organic
aerosols is needed for the quantification of their effects on solar radiation transfer and cloud …

Bacteria, fungi, algae and higher plants are the most prolific producers of natural products
(secondary metabolites). Compared to macroalgae, considerably fewer natural products …

Isoprene and monoterpenes constitute a significant fraction of new plant biomass. Emission
rates into the atmosphere alone are estimated to be over 500 Tg per year. These natural …

Organic molecular composition of marine aerosol samples collected during the MALINA
cruise in the Arctic Ocean was investigated by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry …
