Biogenic aldehydes, hydroxycarbonyls, and dicarbonyls in gas and particle phases were collected with an annular denuder sampling system (ADSS) in a Quercus crispula and Picea glehnii mast mixed forest. Eighty samples were collected from 22 to 29 August 2002. The size distributions of aerosols were also observed concurrently with a scanning mobility particle sizer (SMPS). The gaseous concentrations of these carbonyl compounds ranged from the detection limit (approximately 1 pptv) to 154 pptv (630 ng m-3, 4-oxopentanal), and the particulate concentrations ranged from the detection limit (approximately 3 ng m-3) to 200 ng m-3 (4-oxopentanal). Although the production processes of these compounds are different from each other, the temporal variations of the gaseous concentrations were quite similar. In addition, the variation was also similar to that of the ambient temperature. Furthermore, gas-to-particle conversion was suggested to be an important removal process of these compounds. We could evaluate the importance of the gas-to-particle conversion as a removal process of the gaseous species by an ADSS measurement. In addition, the results of our experiment indicated that the conversion includes two processes. The first is an adsorption onto the aerosols which have already existed in the atmosphere. The next is dissolution into the water phases in the aerosols. The latter process was particular to water soluble compounds. The measurement allowed us to identify the most likely removal processes of biogenic semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs). In this study, we discuss about these processes of semivolatile and biogenic carbonyls in the forest atmosphere.
