Tropical, temperate, and boreal forests are critical components of the climate system, and
the ecosystem services they provide are essential for our society (Bonan et al., 1992, Bonan …

Conspectus The complex array of sources and transformations of organic carbonaceous
material that comprises an important fraction of atmospheric fine particle mass, known as …

Biogenic vapors form new particles in the atmosphere, affecting global climate. The
contributions of monoterpenes and isoprene to new particle formation (NPF) have been …

Highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) are formed from the oxidation of biogenic and
anthropogenic gases and affect Earth's climate and air quality by their key role in particle …

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) forms a major part of the tropospheric submicron aerosol.
Still, the exact formation mechanisms of SOA have remained elusive. Recently, a newly …

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF), which is observed in many environments
globally, is an important source of boundary-layer aerosol particles and cloud condensation …

Highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) play an important role in the formation and evolution
of secondary organic aerosols (SOA). However, the abundance of HOMs in different …

The capabilities of the recently developed Vocus proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass
spectrometer (PTR-TOF) are reported for the first time based on ambient measurements …

As two of the most important components of atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2. 5),
