Quantifying the Seasonal and Interannual Variability of North American Isoprene Emissions Using Satellite Observations of the Formaldehyde Column [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Quantifying isoprene emissions using satellite observations of the formaldehyde (HCHO) columns is subject to errors involving the column retrieval and the assumed relationship between HCHO columns and isoprene emissions, taken here from the GEOS-CHEM ...

Isoprene Oxidation by the Gram-Negative Model bacterium Variovorax sp. WS11

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Plant-produced isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene) represents a significant portion of global volatile organic compound production, equaled only by methane.

Simulating atmospheric composition over a South-East Asian tropical rainforest: performance of a chemistry box model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Atmospheric composition and chemistry above tropical rainforests is currently not well established, particularly for south-east Asia. In order to examine our understanding of chemical processes in this region, the performance of a box model of ...

Estimating European volatile organic compound emissions using satellite observations of formaldehyde from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Emission of non-methane Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to the atmosphere stems from biogenic and human activities, and their estimation is difficult because of the many and not fully understood processes involved.

Sphingopyxis sp. Strain OPL5, an Isoprene-Degrading Bacterium from the Sphingomonadaceae Family Isolated from Oil Palm Leaves

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The volatile secondary metabolite, isoprene, is released by trees to the atmosphere in enormous quantities, where it has important effects on air quality and climate.

Formaldehyde production from isoprene oxidation across NOx regimes [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
The chemical link between isoprene and formaldehyde (HCHO) is a strong, nonlinear function of NOx (i.e., NO + NO2). This relationship is a linchpin for top-down isoprene emission inventory verification from orbital HCHO column observations. It is also a

Global and regional impacts of land cover changes on isoprene emissions derived from spaceborne data and the MEGAN model [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
Among the biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted by plant foliage, isoprene is by far the most important in terms of both global emission and atmospheric impact. It is highly reactive in the air, and its degradation favours the generation of

Bacterial degradation of poly(trans-1,4-isoprene) (gutta percha) [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 2007
Gutta percha, the trans-isomer of polyisoprene, is being used for several technical applications due to its resistance to biological degradation. In the past, several attempts to isolate micro-organisms capable of degrading chemically pure poly(trans-1,4-isoprene) have failed. This is the first report on axenic cultures of bacteria capable of degrading

Forward and Inverse Analysis of Chemical Transport Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Assessing the discrepancy between modeled and observed distributions of aerosols is a persistent problem on many scales. Tools for analyzing the evolution of aerosol size distributions using the adjoint method are presented in idealized box model ...

The microbiology of isoprene cycling in aquatic ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene) is emitted in vast quantities (>500 Tg C yr-1). Most isoprene is emitted by trees, but there is still incomplete understanding of the diversity of isoprene sources.
