1. Evolution of Organic Aerosols in the AtmosphereScience · 2009 · 4,919 citations

   Organic aerosol (OA) particles affect climate forcing and human health, but their sources and evolution remain poorly characterized. We present a unifying model framework describing the atmospheric evolution of OA that is constrained by high-time-resolution measurements of its composition, volatility,…

2. The formation, properties and impact of secondary organic aerosol: current and emerging issuesAtmospheric chemistry and physics · 2009 · 4,605 citations

   Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) accounts for a significant fraction of ambient tropospheric aerosol and a detailed knowledge of the formation, properties and transformation of SOA is therefore required to evaluate its impact on atmospheric processes, climate and human health.…

3. Ubiquity and dominance of oxygenated species in organic aerosols in anthropogenically‐influenced Northern Hemisphere midlatitudesGeophysical Research Letters · 2007 · 2,931 citations

   Organic aerosol (OA) data acquired by the Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) in 37 field campaigns were deconvolved into hydrocarbon‐like OA (HOA) and several types of oxygenated OA (OOA) components. HOA has been linked to primary combustion emissions (mainly from fossil…

4. Field-Deployable, High-Resolution, Time-of-Flight Aerosol Mass SpectrometerAnalytical Chemistry · 2006 · 2,669 citations

   The development of a new high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) is reported. The high-resolution capabilities of this instrument allow the direct separation of most ions from inorganic and organic species at the same nominal m/z, the quantification of several…

5. Chemical and microphysical characterization of ambient aerosols with the aerodyne aerosol mass spectrometerMass Spectrometry Reviews · 2007 · 2,286 citations

   The application of mass spectrometric techniques to the real-time measurement and characterization of aerosols represents a significant advance in the field of atmospheric science. This review focuses on the aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS), an instrument designed and developed at Aerodyne…
