  1. 1. Atmospheric Chemistry of Volatile Organic Compounds: Oxidation Products, Mechanisms and Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation

    Author : Julia Hammes; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SOA; VOC; anthropogenic; biogenic; FIGAERO; CIMS; HOMs; ELVOCs; atmospheric oxidation; chemical mechanism; NOx; limonene; a-pinene; TMB; ozone; nitrate; OH; radical chemistry; RO2; G-FROST; GO:PAM;

    Abstract : The results from this work are a piece in understanding the complex puzzle of atmospheric aerosol formation. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formed by the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the atmosphere is a key component of air pollution with a strong negative impact on human health and influence on climate, but its formation is poorly understood.

  2. 2. Physical and Chemical Processes in the Formation of Biogenic secondary Organic Aerosols

    Author : Åsa M. Jonsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tropospheric chemistry; monoterpenes; ozonolysis; secondary organic aerosol SOA ; G-FROST; AIDA; humidity; temperature; hydroxyl radicals; volatility; pinonaldehyde; climate and health;

    Abstract : Vegetation emits a vast number of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC). In the atmosphere they are oxidised, predominantly by O3, OH radicals or NO3 radicals, depending e.g. on chemical structure. READ MORE

  3. 3. Formation, ageing and thermal properties of secondary organic aerosol

    Author : Eva U. Emanuelsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; volatile organic compounds; biogenic; anthropogenic; secondary organic aerosol; troposphere; volatility; ozone;

    Abstract : In order to properly represent and predict the effects of aerosol in climate systems, an accurate description of their formation and properties is needed. This thesis describes work done to increase the knowledge of processes and properties of atmospherically relevant secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from both biogenic and anthropogenic origin.

  4. 4. Physical properties and processes of secondary organic aerosol and its constituents

    Author : Kent Salo; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SOA; ageing; VOC; atmosphere; volatility; VTDMA; monoterpenes; ageing;

    Abstract : Atmospheric aerosol particles are involved in several important processes including the formation of clouds and precipitation. A considerable fraction of the ambient aerosol mass consists of organic compounds of both primary and secondary origin. READ MORE
