UV photochemistry of carboxylic acids at the air‐sea boundary: A relevant source of glyoxal and other oxygenated VOC in the marine atmosphere

UV photochemistry of carboxylic acids at the air‐sea boundary: A relevant source of glyoxal and other oxygenated VOC in the marine atmosphere

Photochemistry plays an important role in marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) degradation, but the mechanisms that convert DOC into volatile organic compounds (VOCs) remain poorly understood. We irradiated carboxylic acids (C7–C9) on a simulated ocean surface with UV light (
