%X Atmospheric aerosol plays a key role in the Earth's climate system. Aerosol particles influence the Earth's radiation budget because of their light scattering and absorbing properties (direct effect) and their ability to form cloud condensation nuclei (indirect effect). A large fraction of atmospheric aerosol is of organic origin, either directly emitted as solid or liquid particles (Primary Organic Aerosol; POA) or formed from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by photooxidation(Secondary Organic Aerosol; SOA). SOA contributes up to 90 % to the total organic aerosol mass and participates in new particle formation (nucleation). Understanding the formation of SOA is crucial for estimating its impact on the climate as wellas on human health and the development of future mitigation and adaptation strategies. Therefore, SOA is typically classiffied into anthropogenic SOA (ASOA) originating from anthropogenic precursors (e.g. aromatic hydrocarbons) and biogenic SOA (BSOA) formed by (photo-)oxidation of plant emissions (e.g. monoterpenes). ...
