Sources and Fate of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and NOx in Human-Made Environments

Session ID#: 157040

Session Description:
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) fuel the production of air pollutants like ozone and particulate matter (PM) through reactions with hydroxyl radicals (OH) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). A detailed understanding of the sources and fate of VOCs and NOx, which are emitted from various sources, is therefore required to regulate ozone and PM. Advances in mobile, flux, and satellite measurements have improved our understanding of VOC and NOx sources, spatial distributions, and disparities. Recent work has highlighted the importance of VOC emissions from volatile chemical products (VCPs) in densely populated areas. However, uncertainties in VOC and NOx budgets remain, causing a need for further intercomparison between models, measurements, and emission inventories. In this session, we solicit abstracts on field, modeling, satellite, and laboratory work that aims to characterize reactivity, sources, and fate of VOCs and NOx in human-made environments including (but not limited to) urban, agricultural, industrial, and indoor regimes.
