Aerosol mass spectrometer constraint on the global secondary organic aerosol budget

The budget of atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is very uncertain, with recent estimates suggesting a global source of between 12 and 1820 Tg (SOA) a<sup>−1</sup>. We used a dataset of aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) observations from 34 different surface locati...
