Figures
Figure 3: Time series of representative OA markers, PM1 compositions, trace gases, and meteorological conditions. Blue, orange, 565 and red bars at the top represent marine, coastal, and continental air, respectively. Shaded areas represent the periods with troughs. Missing data are due to instrument maintenance. 
Figure 4: Average diurnal patterns of nine representative OA markers. Tip of the top (bottom) whisker is the 95th (5th) percentile. Top and bottom of the box denote the 75th and 25th percentiles, respectively. Line inside the box represents the median value, and 570 the mean value is indicated by red square and triangle (excluding data on June 14th – 15th for 2-MGA only). 
Figure 5: Diurnal patterns of 2-MT1 in different scenarios (a) and the comparisons of temperature (b), UV (c), 2-MT1/2-MTs ratio (d), and LWC (e) between the marine air with and without troughs. Shaded areas represent 95% confidence intervals.

TL;DR: A unifying model framework describing the atmospheric evolution of OA that is constrained by high–time-resolution measurements of its composition, volatility, and oxidation state is presented, which can serve as a basis for improving parameterizations in regional and global models.
Aerosols, climate, and the hydrological cycle
TL;DR: Human activities are releasing tiny particles (aerosols) into the atmosphere that enhance scattering and absorption of solar radiation, which can lead to a weaker hydrological cycle, which connects directly to availability and quality of fresh water, a major environmental issue of the 21st century.
Atmospheric aerosols: composition, transformation, climate and health effects.
TL;DR: The current state of knowledge, major open questions, and research perspectives on the properties and interactions of atmospheric aerosols and their effects on climate and human health are outlined.

TL;DR: Detailed organic analysis of natural aerosols from the Amazonian rain forest showed considerable quantities of previously unobserved polar organic compounds, which were identified as a mixture of two diastereoisomeric 2-methyltetrols: 2-methylthreitol and 2- methylerythritol, which can be explained by OH radical–initiated photooxidation of isoprene.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of epoxydiols of isoprene and methacryloylperoxynitrate (MPAN) in the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) was identified.
