Atmospheric Chemistry

Autor Joseph S. Francisco
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 sep 2026
Understanding the environmental impacts of atmospheric chemistry is essential when making observations and decisions. This comprehensive textbook adopts a holistic Earth systems perspective, explaining the interconnection between the chemistry and physics of the Earth's atmosphere with the complex changes that occur due to natural and anthropogenic activities. Providing a systematic foundation in theory, measurement, and modelling, along with recent data and numerical examples, it equips students with the essential background needed to understand and analyze atmospheric systems. Designed for advanced undergraduate and early graduate students, the textbook utilizes a step-by-step approach to equations and theoretical assumptions, allowing readers to better understand field research, laboratory measurements, and atmospheric modelling, and apply those lessons to real world problems. With interconnected concepts forming a comprehensive framework, end-of-chapter questions that encourage critical thinking, and an online solutions manual, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students of atmospheric chemistry.
