Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The photochemical activity and toxicity of VOCs directly affect the environment and human health. High-concentration VOCs are important precursors of secondary organic aerosols and ozone through their photochemical interactions with free radicals, making VOCs some of the primary factors affecting indoor and outdoor air quality. The high toxicity and carcinogenicity of some VOCs have also attracted the attention of healthy lifestyle enthusiasts. Therefore, understanding the compositional characteristics and source distribution of VOCs, and evaluating their photochemical effects and health risks, is crucial for improving health and environmental safety. This Special Issue aims to collect the latest data and investigate the relationship between environmental emissions of VOCs, air quality, and human health risks through both environmental monitoring and statistical modeling. Topics of special interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Study on VOC spectroscopy of typical emission sources;
- Development of high spatiotemporal resolution dataset for VOCs emission inventories;
- Coupled VOCs-NOx-O3 coupling model of pollution events;
- Indoor and outdoor air quality human health risk assessment;
- Air quality prevention and control strategies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
