TLDR
In this article, a new route to secondary organic aerosol formation from isoprene and its gas-phase oxidation products, methacrolein and methacrylic acid, was introduced, namely, multiphase acid-catalysed oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, a perfect analogue to atmospheric sulphate formation.

Organic aerosol and global climate modelling: a review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed existing knowledge with regard to organic aerosol (OA) of importance for global climate modelling and defined critical gaps needed to reduce the involved uncertainties, and synthesized the information to provide a continuous analysis of the flow from the emitted material to the atmosphere up to the point of the climate impact of the produced organic aerosols.

Chemistry of secondary organic aerosol: Formation and evolution of low-volatility organics in the atmosphere

TL;DR: A review of the chemistry of the formation and continuing transformation of low-volatility species in the atmosphere can be found in this article, where the primary focus is chemical processes that can change the volatility of organic compounds: oxidation reactions in the gas phase, reaction in the particle phase, and reaction in either phase over several generations.

A global model of natural volatile organic compound emissions

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.

Formation of Secondary Organic Aerosols Through Photooxidation of Isoprene

TL;DR: Detailed organic analysis of natural aerosols from the Amazonian rain forest showed considerable quantities of previously unobserved polar organic compounds, which were identified as a mixture of two diastereoisomeric 2-methyltetrols: 2-methylthreitol and 2- methylerythritol, which can be explained by OH radical–initiated photooxidation of isoprene.
