Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a wide range of carbon-containing chemicals characterized by high volatility generated by different types of sources. This research aims to analyze biogenic volatile organic compounds in the Valderejo Natural Park (Spain). Methodologically, a review was initially carried out in the different academic and scientific databases; subsequently, field trips, 45 sample collections, description, records and general information were carried out. The gas chromatography technique with a flame ionization detector was implemented for VOC monitoring, allowing operation for long periods of time in an automatic and semi-unattended manner, accessing a direct intake and installing monitoring stations with remote control operation. For direct sampling and on-line analysis, Turbomatrix was used, designed to introduce a calibration standard or ambient air sample to the thermal desorption system. Between 2010 and 2012, 90% of the samples analyzed showed two chromatographic signals at the end of channel B, allowing the identification of monoterpenes 1 and 2, associated with plant respiration.
