%X Terpenoids (isoprene and monoterpenes) are highly reactive Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) known for decades for their biogenic origin. Here, we discuss the nature and magnitude of their anthropogenic emissions. We compiled and re-analyzed 14 data sets of in situ VOC observations collected over the last decade in contrasting urban areas from mid-latitudes to subtropical regions. We show the systematic presence of anthropogenic terpenoids in urban ambient air with clear covariations with anthropogenic compounds (R-2 > 0.50) even during mid-latitude winters. Despite the emerging importance of monoterpene emissions from consumer products in North American cities, there is some evidence of monoterpene emissions from tailpipe exhaust in cities of the developing world. The traffic-related fraction of monoterpenes is estimated and can account for up to 40% of their ambient levels. The anthropogenic emission ratios (ER) of some terpenoids (isoprene, a-pinene and limonene) are estimated and spatially compared. The anthropogenic emissions of terpenoids are indirectly estimated from those ER combined to regional and global emission inventories (CAMS-GLOB-ANT_v4.2) at urban and country scale focusing on France, Lebanon, and Vietnam. Those anthropogenic emissions do not represent more than 3% of other anthropogenic VOC emissions. However, they dominate by one to three orders of magnitude the reactivity of other anthropogenic VOCs regarding NO3 oxidation and ozonolysis. This study raises two questions which need further investigations in the future: (a) the significance of terpenoid emissions from traffic, especially in urban areas of the developing world and (b) the role of anthropogenic terpenoids in nighttime and wintertime atmospheric chemistry at mid-latitudes.
