In single-ion gas chromatography-mass spectrometry measurements that were tuned to measure monoterpenes, made by D.R. and E.A. In 1998, the peaks of all VOCs in the monoterpene region were identified and quantified above an equivalent mixing ratio of 1 pptv; less than 1% of the total peak area Was unidentified (17).
