Average concentrations for most of the NMHC show clear seasonal variations along the year mainly attributed to photochemistry. Significant correlations found among various hydrocarbons indicate contribution from mobile and stationary sources (exhaust and combustion). Leakages from natural gas (NG) or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) probably from the continental platforms may account for important sources for the background concentration of ethane and propane in the area. Isoprene has been found to have mostly a biogenic source but its dual anthropogenic–biogenic origin was also evident at the rural site. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>333</first_page><last_page>340</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">602</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000602</doi><timestamp>1713488416</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/602</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
