This book is aimed at graduate students and research scientists interested in gaining a deeper
understanding of atmospheric chemistry fundamental photochemistry and gas phase and
heterogeneous reaction kinetics. It also provides all necessary spectroscopic and kinetic data
which should be useful as reference sources for research scientists in atmospheric chemistry.
As an application of reaction chemistry it provides chapters on tropospheric and stratospheric
reaction chemistry covering tropospheric ozone and photochemical oxidant formation
stratospheric ozone depletion and sulfur chemistry related to acid deposition and the
stratospheric aerosol layer. This book is intended not only for students of chemistry but also
particularly for non-chemistry students who are studying meteorology radiation physics
engineering and ecology biology and who wish to find a useful source on reaction chemistry.
