Short summary
The impact of atmospheric chemistry on the fate and transport of pesticides is poorly understood. This paper describes a method for real-time measurements of four common-use pesticides in the gas phase using chemical ionization mass spectrometry. The calibration approach for atmospheric semi-volatile pesticides is described in detail.
