Gaseous organic compounds, mainly volatile organic compounds (VOCs), have become a
wide concern in various indoor environments where we spend the majority of our daily time …

Incomplete understanding of the sources of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) leads to large
uncertainty in both air quality management and in climate change assessment. Chemical …

Exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) is associated with millions of premature
deaths annually. Oxidative stress through overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) …

Chemical mechanisms describe the atmospheric transformations of organic and inorganic
species and connect air emissions to secondary species such as ozone, fine particles, and …

Organosulfates (OSs) are well-known and ubiquitous constituents of atmospheric aerosol
particles and have been used as secondary organic aerosol markers in many field studies …

Brown carbon (BrC) is known to have important impacts on atmospheric chemistry and
climate. Phenolic compounds are a prominent class of BrC precursors that are emitted in …

Dicarboxylic acids are one of the important water-soluble organic compounds in
atmospheric aerosols, causing adverse effects to both climate and human health. More …

Secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) are important components of fine particulates in the
atmosphere. However, the sources of SOA precursor and atmospheric processes affecting …

Organic aerosol (OA) serves as a crucial component of fine particulate matter. However, the
response of OA to changes in anthropogenic emissions remains unclear due to its …
