The book reviews the current state of knowledge on the chemical
and physical processes occurring in the environmental media (i) the
atmosphere, (ii) the aqueous phase and (iii) soil and identifies
the strengths and weaknesses of the chemical mechanisms (both
explicit and condensed) currently available to simulate the
multimedia environmental chemistry of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs) and particulate matter in these media. Contributions examine
how well this knowledge has been incorporated into different types
of CT models and appraise the current status and significant issues
in the development and usage of the models. Model simulations of
some real world chemical perturbations to the Earth system are
presented which appraise the performance of the models in relation
to "real world" observations. Serious caveats in our understanding
of chemical processes and their simulation in the various
compartments of the Earth system are highlighted and areas are
identified that need urgent improvement, in particular with respect
to environmental security.
