Photochemical degradation of isoprene-derived 4,1-nitrooxy enal [PDF]
In isoprene-impacted environments, carbonyl nitrates are produced from NO3-initiated isoprene oxidation, which constitutes a potentially important NOx reservoir.

Gene probing reveals the widespread distribution, diversity and abundance of isoprene-degrading bacteria in the environment [PDF]
Background Approximately 500 Tg of isoprene are emitted to the atmosphere annually, an amount similar to that of methane, and despite its significant effects on the climate, very little is known about the biological degradation of isoprene in the ...

Characterization of marine isoprene-degrading communities [PDF]
Isoprene is a volatile and climate‐altering hydrocarbon with an atmospheric concentration similar to that of methane. It is well established that marine algae produce isoprene; however, until now there was no specific information about marine isoprene ...

Can simple models predict large-scale surface ocean isoprene concentrations? [PDF]
We use isoprene and related field measurements from three different ocean data sets together with remotely sensed satellite data to model global marine isoprene emissions.

Genetics and Ecology of Isoprene Degradation
Approximately 550 million tonnes of the monoterpene, isoprene, are emitted to the atmosphere annually, principally from terrestrial plants. In contrast to methane, which is emitted in similar quantities, little is known about the biodegradation of ...

Novel Isoprene-Degrading Proteobacteria From Soil and Leaves Identified by Cultivation and Metagenomics Analysis of Stable Isotope Probing Experiments [PDF]
Isoprene is a climate-active gas and one of the most abundant biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) released into the atmosphere. In the terrestrial environment, plants are the primary producers of isoprene, releasing between 500 and 750 million ...
