Long description:
Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds and Climate Change highlights the relationship between climate change and biogenic VOC and the impact they have on each other. Topics include the synthesis and emission of VOC in plants, how they respond to environmental stresses, how sustainable agricultural practices plants can be used to directly impact climate change beyond carbon sequestration, a review of biogenic VOCs as air pollutants, and the impact of biogenic VOC on clouds. This groundbreaking work is essential for anyone in climate change, global warming and cooling, atmospheric chemistry, clouds, fate and transport of chemicals in the atmosphere, air pollution, sustainability or agriculture.


  • Explains how volatile organic compound (VOC) production and emission in plants can ameliorate the consequences of climate change induced abiotic and biotic stresses
  • Comprehensively addresses the complex interactions between global warming, atmospheric composition and plant ecology beyond carbon sequestration
  • Reviews the use of biogenic VOC in sustainability
Table of Contents:
1. Introduction
2. Synthesis and emission of VOC in plants
3. Biogenic VOC in response to environmental stresses
4. Exploiting biogenic VOC in future agricultural practices
5. Biogenic VOC and air pollutants: ozone and secondary organic aerosol (SOA)
6. Effects of Biogenic VOCs on cloud formation and properties
7. Interactions between emissions of biogenic VOC and climate change at the global scale
