Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are organic compounds in the air that have low vapor pressure. VOCs can be emitted from a variety of sources including biogenic, anthropogenic and pyrogenic processes. VOCs are precursors of aerosols and tropospheric 03. which harm human health. However, the potential of VOCs forming secondary air pollutants varies by species. Here, we analyze the long-term trends of soiu'ce. concentration and reactivity of six classes of VOCs from 1995 to 2018 over Texas. USA. VOCs emission from petroleum and related companies in Texas kept increasing these years. Among the VOCs tracers of oil and gas companies, the concentration of ethane kept increasing until 2015. Despite the increase of oil and gas related VOCs. the concentration of total VOCs and reactivity-weighted VOCs have decreased in the past two decades. We further investigate the seasonality of VOC reactivities, which depend on both temperature and VOC concentration. We find that VOC reactivity generally is highest in fall and lowest in spring, and such seasonality does not change over the two decades.
