• Bakersfield hourly speciated organics include 500+ chemicals spanning 15 orders of magnitude in volatility, and wide range of composition

• Bakersfield PM1 dominantly organic & secondary

• Primary and secondary tracers useful for identification of sources

• Gas/particle partitioning observed

• Analysis of data just beginning

Central Valley: Large emissions from agriculture

LA basin: Fresh emissions are mixed with 1 and 2 day old pollution

During the night: also processed

On weekends: more processed than during the week

CO and VOCs have decreased by about a factor of two since 2002
