TL;DR: In this paper, a chemical mass balance receptor model based on organic compounds was developed that relates sours; contributions to airborne fine particle mass concentrations and revealed source contributions to the concentrations of specific organic compounds.

TL;DR: The Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX) documented this Indo-Asian haze at scales ranging from individual particles to its contribution to the regional climate forcing as discussed by the authors, and integrated the multiplatform observations (satellites, aircraft, ships, surface stations, and balloons) with one-and four-dimensional models to derive the regional aerosol forcing resulting from the direct, the semidirect and the two indirect effects.

TL;DR: It is shown that agricultural burning and especially biofuel use enhance carbon monoxide concentrations and Fossil fuel combustion and biomass burning cause a high aerosol loading, which gives rise to extensive air quality degradation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemical composition of meat smoke aerosol is examined by high-resolution gas chromatography and gaseous chromatography/mass spectrometry, and the objective is to search for molecular markers that will confirm the presence of meats smoke in urban atmospheric samples.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of fireplace source tests was conducted on six fuel wood species found in the Southern United States to determine fine particulate emission factors for total mass, ionic and elemental species, elemental and organic carbon, and over 250 individual organic compounds.
