Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: From Air Pollution to Climate Change John H. Seinfeld, Spyros N. Pandis
Publisher: Wiley-Interscience

The findings, published in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, present a more complete picture of the processes that affect regional climate change. A newly released study shows that if no new climate change or air pollution legislation is implemented, average world air quality will worsen by 2050. NUI Galway's Professor Colin O'Dowd was in London last week to collect the Appleton Medal, awarded to him by the Institute of Physics for his 'distinguished research in environmental and atmospheric physics'. Department of Energy's Office of Science has provided greater definition to the role of black carbon in climate change. Obama seemed to signal in his inaugural address that climate change would become a greater priority in his second term, but his goals remain unclear. The chemistry and physics needed to understand that anthropogenic climate change is an expected phenomenon are not that hard. The findings of Reaction and Greenhouse Effect of Halogenated Molecules: Culprits for Atmospheric Ozone Depletion and Global Climate Change - are at odds with the consensus view that climate change is driven by increasing concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere. Monsoon climate." Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 11, 1929-1948. The peer-reviewed research by Qing-Bin Lu, a professor of physics and astronomy, biology and chemistry at Waterloo University, was published in the International Journal of Modern Physics B. Sea ice decline driving changes in arctic air pollutants. The work also carries significant implications for the future climate of industrial Until the United States passed the Clean Air Act in 1970 and strengthened it in 1990, particulate pollution hung thick over the central and eastern states. On-going research sponsored by the U.S. Two sooty accounts of PNNL scientists were the first to show how a layer of soot on snow increased the surface air temperature between 0.1 and 1.0°C over the majority of the snow-covered areas in the western United States. This research is the first-ever Published in the European Geosciences Union's (EGU) open access journal called Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, the study determined that the average world citizen forty years from now will have the same air quality as felt by today's average East Asian citizen.
