AES 612 Atmospheric ChemistryCredits: (3-0) 3
Radiative, chemical, and biological processes assoiciated with formation of stratospheric ozone, troposheric ozone, biogenic emissions and human- caused emissions, “greenhouse” effects, and aqueous-phase equilibria in clouds. The approach will include aspects of classical chemistry, nucleation, instrumentation, and modeling of effects of chemical pollutants on cloud microphysics. Interactions of biological and human-caused emission of trace gases with radiation and oxidant balance of earth’s atmosphere. Topics to be addressed include: stratospheric ozone formation and the “ozone hole,” Troposheric ozone formation, field techniques to measure chemical fluxes, and photochemistry of the remote troposphere.
