Chemical transformations in monoterpene-derived organic aerosol enhanced by inorganic composition
Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is known to impact both climate and air quality, yet molecular-level composition measurements remain challenging, hampering our understanding of SOA formation and evolution. Here, we reveal the importance of underestimated
