Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC): An Overview on Emission, Physiology and Ecology

TL;DR: In this article, an overview of the actual knowledge of the biogenic emissions of some volatile organic compounds (VOCs), i.e., isoprene, terpenes, alkanes, alkenes, carbonyls, alcohols, esters, and acids, is presented.

Temperature dependence of the absorption cross sections of formaldehyde between 223 and 323 K in the wavelength range 225–375 nm

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the absorption cross sections of formaldehyde (HCHO) with a spectral resolution of 0.025 nm in the wavelength range 225-375 nm at 298 K using a diode array detector.

Evidence from the Pacific troposphere for large global sources of oxygenated organic compounds

TL;DR: The tropospheric composition of oxygenated organic species is characterized, using data from a recent airborne survey conducted over the tropical Pacific Ocean, and it is suggested that oxygenated species could be formed via the oxidation of hydrocarbons in the atmosphere, the photochemical degradation of organic matter in the oceans, and direct emissions from terrestrial vegetation.

Central Amazonian Floodplain Forests: Tree Adaptations in a Pulsing System

TL;DR: The regularity of flooding may have enhanced the evolution of specific traits, which partially are well known from floodplain trees in other tropical and in temperate regions, and lead to specific species distributions and zonations along the flooding gradient and within Amazonian floodplain systems.

Evaluated kinetic and photochemical data for atmospheric chemistry

TL;DR: A critical evaluation of the kinetics and photochemistry of gas phase chemical reactions of neutral species involved in middle atmosphere chemistry (10-55 km altitude) was carried out by the authors under the auspices of the CODATA Task Group on Chemical Kinetics.

Simultaneous measurement of atmospheric CH2O, O3, and NO2 by differential optical absorption

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a ground-based UV-optical absorption technique which allowed the simultaneous determination of CH2O, NO2, and O3 with detection limits of 0.1, 1, and 1 ppb, respectively, for rural areas around Julich and for maritime air at the north coast of Germany.
