a

All units are μg m–3 except where indicated otherwise.

b

MTi, SQTi, Aroi, and MeSAi refer to the initial concentration measured in the chamber before oxidation was initiated.

c

Reacted VOCs were estimated as described in the text.

d

The SOA formed in the chamber is estimated from SMPS data and corrected for particle wall losses, and the range is provided for SOA density from 1.0 to 1.5 g cm–3. That range is reflected in the SOA yield also.

e

SOA yield was calculated as ΔSOA/ΔVOC.
