Abstract
The primary biogenic emission product; isoprene, and the major carbonyl compounds produced from its oxidation; methacrolein and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK), were measured in the atmosphere at forested sites in the regional area of Sydney. Correlations of the oxidation products to isoprene, and to each other, are reported and are in good agreement with other published work. The relationship between isoprene concentrations and meteorological parameters such as temperature has also been investigated. These results provide an important database for establishing the accuracy of emission inventory estimates of biogenic emissions and hence the successful modelling and management of smog formation in the greater Sydney region.
