Global and Regional Changes in Atmospheric Composition
This is an excellent reference for atmospheric scientists, policy makers, environmental managers, and environmental consultants. Topics covered include acid rain, greenhouse gases, stratospheric ozone, and the air chemistry of various materials - from their emission into the atmosphere to their removal. CONTENTS: Introduction: Past Changes in Atmospheric Environment. Present Variations of the Atmospheric Concentrations and Emissions of Trace Substances. Formation and Destruction of Trace Substances within the Atmosphere. Removal of Trace Substances from the Atmosphere. Atmospheric Cycles and Their Changes. Environmental Consequences of Anthropogenic Modifications: The Future of the Atmosphere. Index.
Atmospheric Chemistry
The work in your hand contains three main chapters, covering the chemistry of the condensed phase in the atmosphere, first, the different forms of atmospheric waters (precipitation, fog and clouds, dew), and secondly dust, now mostly termed particulate matter and, more scientifically, atmospheric aerosol. A third section treats the gases in the atmosphere. An introductory chapter covers the roots of the term atmospheric chemistry in its relations to chemistry in general and biogeochemistry as the chemistry of the climate system. Furthermore, a brief overview of understanding chemical reactions in aqueous and gaseous phase is given. It is my aim to pay respect to all persons who studied the s...

Fundamentals of Atmospheric Aerosol Chemistry
Gives a short and coherent presentation of the chemical composition of aerosol particles contributing to detrimental atmospheric and environmental conditions. After review of physical properties and measuring procedures, the formation of aerosol particles in the atmosphere determining aerosol composition is summarized. Present knowledge of particle composition is discussed, and the impact of aerosol particles on cloud formation, visibility degradation, climate variations, and ozone depletion is described. For graduate students and researchers in environmental science. The author is affiliated with the University of Veszprem. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
Learning to manage global environmental risks. 2. A functional analysis of social responses to climate change, ozone depletion, and acid rain
This long-awaited two-volume book examines how the interplay of ideas and actions applied to environmental problems has laid the foundations for global environmental management. It looks at how ideas, interests, and institutions affect management practice; how management capabilities in other areas affect the ability to deal with specific environmental issues; and how learning affects society's approach to the global environment.The book focuses on efforts to deal with climate change, ozone depletion, and acid rain from 1957 (The International Geophysical Year) through 1992 (the UN Conference on Environment and Development). The settings include Canada, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Mexico, the N...
Environment, Security and UN Reform
This book presents a study of international relations theory and the role of the United Nations in international environmental negotiations. The book links discussion of three issues: the persistence of third-world debt, the environmental abuse of the global commons and the financial and institutional crises within the UN system. It includes a summary of both the achievements and limitations of the 1992 Rio Summit, (UNCED), and concludes with far reaching proposals for the restructuring of UN activities.
