Why It Matters: Models have persistently and significantly underestimated atmospheric loadings of SOA.

These data indicate that under many atmospherically - relevant conditions SOA particles are significantly more viscous and orders of magnitude less volatile than assumed in traditional modeling approaches; SOA formation yields can be significantly higher than previously reported values; and anthropogenic pollution enhance loadings of SOA from biogenic precursors.

The models that explicitly simulate SOA calculate a slower removal rate of SOA from these altitudes than is assumed in the other models.

The response of the global budget of SOA to temperature and moisture changes as well as to biogenic emission changes over a decade (1984 - 1993) has been evaluated.

The SOA computed variability results from a 7 % increase in biogenic VOC emissions from 1986 to 1990 combined with 8.5 % and 6 % increases in the wet and dry deposition of SOA and leads to about 11.5 % increase in the SOA burden of biogenic origin.

Provides that where a person is charged in respect of conduct that is an offence under the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (SOA 2003) and was an offence under one of the repealed offences listed in sub-s (2), and the only thing preventing the person being found guilty is that it can not be proven beyond reasonable doubt whether the conduct took place before or after the commencement of SOA 2003, then it shall be conclusively presumed for the purposes of determining the guilt of the defendant that the conduct took place at a time when the offence in respect of that conduct carried the lower penalty in terms of a custodial sentence which could be imposed on conviction of the defendant.

A person has three days in which to notify the police of this change, and the syntax of SOA 2003 makes clear that this begins at the time the change becomes applicable: ``... his having resided or stayed, for a qualifying period.»

Carbonaceous PM is made up of black carbon, primary organic aerosol (POA) and, especially, secondary organic aerosol (SOA), which is known to contain harmful reactive oxygen species and can damage lung tissue.

Researchers from UC Davis and the California Institute of Technology conducted a series of experiments in a 24 cubic meter environmental chamber using the volatile organic compound toluene, which is emitted from motor vehicles and is an important SOA precursor.

Researchers found that the volatility and oxidation state of isoprene SOA are sensitive to, and exhibit a nonlinear dependence on, NOx levels.

Yet, the factors that influence the formation of these aerosols, known as secondary organic aerosol or SOA, are often assumed.

SOA impacts air quality and climate and makes up a major fraction of particulate matter in the atmosphere.

This observation helps reconcile the seemingly contradictory observations of the NOx effect on isoprene SOA volatility reported in previous literature studies.
