Bio-physicochemistry of tropical clouds at Maïdo (Réunion Island) : processes and impacts on secondary organic aerosols formation
The BIO-MAIDO project aims at better understanding the chemical and biological multiphasic mechanisms that control the Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) formation. The tropical environment of the Reunion Island represents an ideal area to study SOA formation by the multiphasic atmosphere since: (1) numerous biogenic volatile organic compounds, precursors of SOA are emitted in huge amount and the high solar intensity flux and the temperature favours their chemical transformations; (2) the high occurrence of fogs and clouds over the area can lead to the formation of SOA by aqueous phase processes (chemistry and biology).
