Organic Matter (OM) can be either primary or secondary. Secondary Organic Matter is derived from the oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds. The oxidation of primary gases such as sulfur and nitrogen oxides, produce substances known as secondary particles. The gases, from which these secondary particles originate, such as fossil fuel or the combustion of coal, may have anthropogenic and natural biogenic
