Monoterpenes from pines through the seasons
Over a full growing cycle, monoterpenes made up more than 95% of the volatile emissions from the branches of conifers including ponderosa and bristlecone pine; monoterpene emissions depended on temperature in the short term, and basal emission rates were generally higher in spring and summer than in winter.
Branch-enclosure measurements on four named conifer species (and two deciduous species not covered here); it describes emissions, not forest air as people smell it.
The statement the claim rests on was found word for word in the abstract fetched from the named service, and an editor read the full abstract against every part of the claim. Abstract from Europe PMC (ebi.ac.uk/europepmc).
