“…The oxidation of terpenes plays an essential role in atmospheric chemical processes [Neeb et al, 1997;Kanakidou et al, 2005]. A large variety of products, including carbonyl compounds, hydroxyl compounds, organic acids, organosulfates, organic nitrates, and some highly oxygenated, extreme low-volatile organic compounds, have been identified in SOA generated from the ozonolysis of terpenes, such as α-pinene, β-pinene, α-cedrene, α-humulene, and limonene [Froyd et al, 2010;Beck et al, 2011;Wells and Ham, 2014;Yao et al, 2014;Ehn et al, 2014;He et al, 2014;Jokinen et al, 2015;Tröstl et al, 2016]. The reaction mechanisms involving Criegee intermediates (CIs) to form SOA precursors have been investigated; however, the mechanisms of SOA formation and transformation are still not fully understood [Johnson and Marston, 2008;McVay et al, 2016].…”
