Bacterial Degradation of Isoprene in the Terrestrial Environment [PDF]
, 2014 Isoprene is a climate active gas emitted from natural and anthropogenic sources in quantities equivalent to the global methane flux to the atmosphere. 90 % of the emitted isoprene is produced enzymatically in the chloroplast of terrestrial plants from ...

Bacteria and fungi associated with isoprene consumption in soil
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2015 Isoprene is a reactive volatile organic compound released from the biosphere that can be abundant in the planetary boundary layer, where it can have a myriad of effects on atmospheric chemistry and secondary aerosol formation.

Molecular ecology of marine isoprene degradation [PDF]
, 2014 Isoprene is an atmospheric trace gas whose emissions to the atmosphere are roughly equal to that of methane. It is highly reactive and has the potential to affect climate through a variety of interactions in the atmosphere, including the formation of ...

Degradation Behaviors of Natural, Guayule, and Synthetic Isoprene Rubbers
Rubber Chemistry and Technology, 1989 The degradation behavior of three isoprene based rubbers, NR, GR, and IR, under accelerated thermal and uv radiative environments have been investigated, and the extents of the degradation are compared.

Influence of convective transport on tropospheric ozone and its precursors in a chemistry-climate model [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2005 The impact of convection on tropospheric O3 and its precursors has been examined in a coupled chemistry-climate model. There are two ways that convection affects O3. First, convection affects O3 by vertical mixing of O3 itself.

Identification and characterisation of isoprene‐degrading bacteria in an estuarine environment [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2017 Summary Approximately one‐third of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted to the atmosphere consists of isoprene, originating from the terrestrial and marine biosphere, with a profound effect on atmospheric chemistry.

Anaerobic Biohydrogenation of Isoprene by Acetobacterium wieringae Strain Y
mBio, 2022 Isoprene is a ubiquitously distributed, biogenic, and climate-active organic compound. Microbial isoprene degradation in oxic environments is fairly well understood; however, studies exploring anaerobic isoprene metabolism remain scarce, with no isolates

Marine isoprene production and consumption in the mixed layer of the surface ocean – a field study over two oceanic regions [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2018 Parameterizations of surface ocean isoprene concentrations are numerous, despite the lack of source/sink process understanding. Here we present isoprene and related field measurements in the mixed layer from the Indian Ocean and the eastern Pacific ...

Quantifying global marine isoprene fluxes using MODIS chlorophyll observations [PDF]
, 2005 We report global distributions of marine isoprene flux, whose source is estimated by combining an empirical relationship for isoprene production rate with MODIS satellite chlorophyll observations from 2001.
