Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are known to be key players in the atmospheric processes. They are emitted both from natural and non-biogenic sources. Although the biogenic sources are generally dominant compared with the anthropogenic sources in some circumstances the anthropogenic emissions can dominate e.g. in densely populated areas or during pollution plumes. VOCs are ambient trace gases including a vast group of compounds. Some of the VOCs are very reactive, participating in atmospheric transformation processes e.g. secondary organic aerosol formation and growth. Some VOCs are also known to be harmful air pollutants for humans. Thus VOCs can have direct effects on air quality and secondary effects on climate. In this thesis, the a...
