Organic peroxides (POs) are organic molecules with one or more peroxide (−O–O−) functional groups. POs commonly regarded as chemically labile termination products from gas-phase radical chemistry and therefore serve temporary reservoirs for oxidative radicals (HOx ROx) in the atmosphere. Owing to their ubiquity, active gas-particle partitioning behavior, reactivity, key reactive intermediates atmospheric multiphase processes determining life cycle (formation, growth, aging), climate, health impacts of aerosol. However, there remain substantial gaps origin, molecular diversity, fate due complex nature dynamic behavior. Here, we summarize current understanding on POs, a focus identification quantification, state-of-the-art analytical developments, molecular-level formation mechanisms, chemical transformation pathways, well environmental impacts. We find that interactions SO2 transition metal ions generally fast PO pathways liquid water, lifetimes estimated be minutes hours, while hydrolysis is particularly important α-substituted hydroperoxides. Meanwhile, photolysis thermolysis likely minor sinks POs.

Biogenic vapors form new particles in the atmosphere, affecting global climate. The contributions of monoterpenes and isoprene to particle formation (NPF) have been extensively studied. However, sesquiterpenes received little attention despite a potentially important role due their high molecular weight. Via chamber experiments performed under atmospheric conditions, we report biogenic NPF resulting from oxidation pure mixtures β-caryophyllene, α-pinene, isoprene, which produces oxygenated compounds over wide range volatilities. We find that class termed ultralow-volatility organic (ULVOCs) are highly efficient nucleators quantitatively determine efficiency. When compared with mixture monoterpene alone, adding only 2% sesquiterpene increases ULVOC yield doubles rate. Thus, emissions need be included assessments aerosol concentrations pristine climates where is expected major source cloud condensation nuclei.

Abstract New particle formation in the upper free troposphere is a major global source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) 1–4 . However, precursor vapours that drive process are not well understood. With experiments performed under tropospheric conditions CERN CLOUD chamber, we show nitric acid, sulfuric acid and ammonia form particles synergistically, at rates orders magnitude faster than those from any two three components. The importance this mechanism depends on availability ammonia, which was previously thought to be efficiently scavenged by droplets during convection. surprisingly high concentrations ammonium nitrate have recently been observed over Asian monsoon region 5,6 Once formed, co-condensation abundant alone sufficient rapid growth CCN sizes with only trace sulfate. Moreover, our measurements these also highly efficient ice nucleating particles—comparable desert dust. Our model simulations confirm convected aloft monsoon, driving rapid, multi-acid HNO 3 –H 2 SO 4 –NH nucleation producing spread across mid-latitude Northern Hemisphere.

Combining unique high-altitude aircraft measurements and detailed regional model simulations, we show that in-plant biochemistry plays a central but previously unidentified role in fine particulate-forming processes atmosphere–biosphere–climate interactions over the Amazon rainforest. Isoprene epoxydiol secondary organic aerosols (IEPOX-SOA) are key components of sub-micrometer aerosol particle mass throughout troposphere rainforest traditionally thought to form by multiphase chemical pathways. Here, these pathways strongly inhibited solid thermodynamic phase state particles lack cloud liquid water upper troposphere. Strong diffusion limitations within coatings prevailing at low temperatures relative humidity inhibit reactive uptake IEPOX inorganic aerosols. We find direct emissions 2-methyltetrol gases formed biochemical oxidation and/or deposited on surfaces soils leaves their transport updrafts followed condensation could explain 90% IEPOX-SOA concentrations Our simulations indicate even near surface, represent ubiquitous, unaccounted for, source IEPOX-SOA. results provide compelling evidence for new related land surface–aerosol–cloud have not been considered previously.

Abstract. New particle formation (NPF) plays a crucial role in the atmospheric aerosol population and has significant implications on climate dynamics, particularly climate-sensitive zones such as Tibetan Plateau (TP). However, our understanding of NPF TP is still limited due to lack comprehensive measurements verified model simulations. To fill this knowledge gap, we conducted an integrated study combining field chemical transport modeling investigate events southeastern during pre-monsoon season. was observed occur frequently clear-sky days TP, contributing significantly cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) budget region. The observational evidence suggests that highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOMs) from monoterpene oxidation participate nucleation TP. After updating chemistry schemes meteorology–chemistry model, well reproduces reveals extensive occurrence across dominant mechanism synergistic sulfuric acid, ammonia, HOMs, driven by anthropogenic precursors South Asia presence abundant biogenic gases. By investigating vertical distribution NPF, find influence More specifically, strong near surface leads intense small particles, which are subsequently transported upward. These particles experience enhanced growth larger sizes upper planetary boundary layer (PBL) favorable conditions lower temperatures reduced sink. As PBL evolves, brought back ground, resulting pronounced increase near-surface concentrations. This highlights important roles anthropogenic–biogenic interactions meteorological dynamics

New particle formation (NPF) substantially affects the global radiation balance and climate. Iodic acid (IA) is a key marine NPF driver that recently has also been detected inland. However, its impact on continental nucleation remains unclear. Here, we provide molecular-level evidence IA greatly facilitates clustering of two typical land-based nucleating precursors: dimethylamine (DMA) sulfuric (SA), thereby enhancing nucleation. Incorporating this mechanism into an atmospheric chemical transport model, show IA-induced enhancement could realize increase over 20% in SA–DMA rate iodine-rich regions China. With declining anthropogenic pollution driven by carbon neutrality clean air policies China, enhance rates 1.5 to 50 times 2060. Our results demonstrate overlooked role highlight necessity for considering synergistic SA-IA-DMA modeling correct representation climatic impacts aerosols.
