This study will take a comprehensive approach to understanding particulate radical formation and its related reactive oxygen species (ROS), by monitoring and modeling hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical generation as well as transition metals, the oxidation state of dissolved iron and organics, including quinones, organic hydroperoxides and potential organic electron donors, in ambient aerosol samples and laboratory generated test aerosols. Field measurements at sites in the San Joaquin Valley and the Los Angeles Basin, California will provide samples for ongoing measurements of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical production and their relationships to variables of interest, and samples collected at the field sites will enable different particle types to be examined. A series of environmental chamber experiments will generate secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from oxidation of biogenic and anthropogenic hydrocarbons with pure ozone and high and low nitrogen oxide photochemistry, with and without seed aerosols composed of metal salts or diesel soot, and possibly other materials such as crustal dusts. Bulk mixture chemistry will also be explored to probe the interplay between metals, quinones and other organics, and effects of light on ROS chemistry will be examined in simplified systems. A chemical kinetics model will be developed and refined to guide the efforts to accurately assess ROS chemistry.The project will enhance teaching and training of undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, and will establish a new partnership between the University of California, Los Angeles, and California State University, Fresno. The partnership will benefit the students involved, and will lead to synergistic benefits that will translate into enhanced classroom materials and outreach activities. The project will enhance participation in science by underrepresented groups, and the results will potentially contribute to key scientific questions related to human health and climate.

本研究将采取全面的方法来了解颗粒自由基的形成及其相关的活性氧（ROS），通过监测和建模过氧化氢和羟基自由基的产生以及过渡金属，溶解铁和有机物的氧化态，包括醌，有机氢过氧化物和潜在的有机电子供体，在环境气溶胶样品和实验室产生的测试气溶胶。在圣华金河谷和加州的洛杉矶盆地进行的实地测量将提供样品，用于不断测量过氧化氢和羟基自由基的产生及其与有关变量的关系，在实地收集的样品将能够检查不同的颗粒类型。一系列的环境室实验将产生二次有机气溶胶（SOA）的生物和人为碳氢化合物的氧化与纯臭氧和高低氮氧化物的光化学，有或没有种子气溶胶组成的金属盐或柴油烟灰，并可能其他材料，如地壳灰尘。散装混合物化学也将探索探测金属，醌类和其他有机物之间的相互作用，光对活性氧化学的影响将在简化的系统进行检查。该项目将加强本科生、研究生和博士后学者的教学和培训，并将在洛杉矶加州大学和弗雷斯诺加州州立大学之间建立新的伙伴关系。这种伙伴关系将使参与的学生受益，并将产生协同效益，转化为更好的课堂材料和外联活动。该项目将加强代表性不足的群体对科学的参与，其结果可能有助于解决与人类健康和气候有关的关键科学问题。
