Lifetimes and time scales in atmospheric chemistry.
Atmospheric composition is controlled by the emission, photochemistry and transport of many trace gases. Understanding the time scale as well as the chemical and spatial patterns of perturbations to trace gases is needed to evaluate possible environmental damage (e.g. stratospheric ozone depletion or climate change) caused by anthropogenic emissions. This paper reviews lessons learned from trea...
متن کاملAtmospheric Composition, Global Cycles and Lifetimes
Photochemical smog is the result of complex chemistry taking place when sunlight irradiates the atmosphere laden with organic gases and nitrous oxides. High temperatures and bright sun light favour photochemical smog. The secondary pollutants, formed from the organic gases and nitrous oxides, are more aggressive and dangerous as the first pollutants. Secondary pollutants are O3, organic nitrate...
متن کاملAtmospheric chemistry.
T he field of atmospheric chemistry is very broad, both in the problems addressed and in the approaches taken. Thus, it includes laboratory and theoretical studies, field measurements, and modeling, and addresses chemistry from the lower to the upper atmosphere, in remote and polluted regions, from marine to continental areas, and both outdoors and indoors. Given this complexity, it is impossib...
متن کاملLifetimes of atmospheric species: Integrating environmental impacts
[1] The environmental damage caused by atmospheric pollutants is proportional to the duration of their effects. The global impacts of greenhouse gases (as measured by global warming potential) and ozone depleting substances (as measured by ozone depletion potential) have traditionally been calculated using the atmospheric lifetime of the source gas as a quantitative measure of the impact’s dura...
