Alex Guenther,C. Nicholas Hewitt,David J. Erickson,Ray Fall,Chris Geron,Thomas E. Graedel,Peter Harley,Lee Klinger,Manuel T. Lerdau,W. A. Mckay,Tom Pierce,Bob Scholes,Rainer Steinbrecher,Raja Tallamraju,John Taylor,Patrick R. Zimmerman +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a global model to estimate emissions of volatile organic compounds from natural sources (NVOC), which has a highly resolved spatial grid and generates hourly average emission estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emissions of volatile organic compounds from vegetation and the implications for atmospheric chemistry
Fred C. Fehsenfeld,Jack G. Calvert,Ray Fall,Paul D. Goldan,Alex Guenther,C. Nicholas Hewitt,Brian Lamb,Shaw Liu,Michael Trainer,Hal Westberg,Patrick R. Zimmerman +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the available information concerning the terrestrial vegetation as sources of volatile organic compounds is reviewed and the biochemical processes associated with these emissions of the compounds and the atmospheric chemistry of the emitted compounds are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inventorying emissions from nature in Europe
David Simpson,Wilfried Winiwarter,Gunnar Börjesson,Steve Cinderby,Antonio Ferreiro,Alex Guenther,C. Nicholas Hewitt,Robert W. Janson,M. Aslam K. Khalil,Susan M. Owen,Tom Pierce,Hans Puxbaum,Martha J. Shearer,Ute Skiba,Rainer Steinbrecher,Leonor Tarrasón,Mats G. Öquist +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new set of guidelines has been developed for assessing the emissions of sulphur, nitrogen oxides, NH3, CH4, and nonmethane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC) from biogenic and other natural sources in Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biogenic volatile organic compounds in the Earth system
TL;DR: Alteration of this relationship by anthropogenically driven changes to the environment, including global climate change, may perturb these interactions and may lead to adverse and hard-to-predict consequences for the Earth system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of Green Infrastructure for Improvement of Air Quality in Urban Street Canyons
TL;DR: Judicious use of vegetation can create an efficient urban pollutant filter, yielding rapid and sustained improvements in street-level air quality in dense urban areas.
