摘要Biogenic secondary organic aerosol (BSOA) makes up a significant proportion of organic aerosol, and its formation chemistry, composition, and physical properties can be influenced by anthropogenic emissions, especially in urban areas. Organosulfates (OSs) are an important class of tracers for BSOA and have been well-studied over the past decade, although detailed ambient studies of diurnal variations are still lacking. In this study, fine particulate matter samples were collected eight times a day across summer and winter campaigns at an urban site in Guangzhou, China. Guangzhou is heavily influenced by both biogenic and anthropogenic emissions, allowing for biogenic-anthropogenic interactions to be studied. Individual OSs and nitrooxy OSs (NOSs) species derived from monoterpenes and isoprene were analyzed using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS2) and quantified using three authentic and proxy standards. The observations show strong diurnal variations of monoterpene derived OSs and NOSs, which peaked during the night, with concentrations increasing from the early evening, highlighting the role of NO3-oxidation chemistry. Isoprene derived OSs/NOSs showed strong seasonal profiles, with summer and winter average concentrations of 181.8 and 69.5 ng m(-3), respectively, with exponential increases observed at temperatures above 30 degrees C. Low-NO formation pathways were dominant in the summer, while high-NO pathways became more important in the winter. Isoprene OS formation was strongly dependent on the availability of particulate sulfate (SO42-), suggesting an extensive heterogeneous chemistry of oxidized isoprene species. Overall, this study provides further insights into biogenically derived OS and NOS formation within highly anthropogenically influenced environments.
