Anthropogenic emissions of volatile organic compounds / Ranier Friedrich and Andreas Obermeier -- Biogenic emissions of volatile organic compounds from higher plants / Ray Fall -- Modeling biogenic volatile organic compound emissions to the atmosphere / Alex Guenther -- The sampling and analysis of volatile organic compounds in the atmosphere / Xu-Liang Cao and C. Nicholas Hewitt -- Reactive hydrocarbons in the atmosphere at urban and regional scales / Paolo Ciccioli, Enzo Brancaleoni, and Massimiliano Frattoni -- Global distribution of reactive hydrocarbons in the atmosphere / B. Bonsang and C. Boissard -- Reactive hydrocarbons and photochemical air pollution / R.G. Derwent -- Global atmospheric chemistry of reactive hydrocarbons / John H. Seinfeld.

The vast family of volatile organic compounds plays a central role in the chemistry of the Earth's atmosphere. Reactive Hydrocarbons in the Atmosphere provides comprehensive and up-to-date reviews covering all aspects of the behavior, sources, occurrence, and chemistry of these compounds. The book considers both biogenic and anthropogenic sources, plus their effects in the atmosphere at local, regional, and global scales. * Covers a major component of atmospheric chemistry and air pollution * Considers both natural background chemistry and pollution processes * Provides authoritative reviews for a wide range of audiences.
