Ozone, an important trace component, is critical to life on Earth
and to atmospheric chemistry. The presence of ozone profoundly
impacts the physical structure of the atmosphere and meteorology.
Ozone is also an important photolytic source for HO radicals, the
driving force for most of the chemistry that occurs in the lower
atmosphere, is essential to shielding biota, and is the only
molecule in the atmosphere that provides protection from UV
radiation in the 250-300 nm region. However, recent concerns
regarding environmental issues have inspired a need for a greater
understanding of ozone, and the effects that it has on the Earth's
atmosphere. The Mechanisms of Reactions Influencing Atmospheric
Ozone provides an overview of the chemical processes associated
with the formation and loss of ozone in the atmosphere, meeting the
need for a greater body of knowledge regarding atmospheric
chemistry. Renowned atmospheric researcher Jack Calvert and his
coauthors discuss the various chemical and physical properties of
the earth's atmosphere, the ways in which ozone is formed and
destroyed, and the mechanisms of various ozone chemical reactions
in the different spheres of the atmosphere. The volume is rich with
valuable knowledge and useful descriptions, and will appeal to
environmental scientists and engineers alike. A thorough analysis
of the processes related to tropospheric ozone, The Mechanisms of
Reactions Influencing Atmospheric Ozone is an essential resource
for those hoping to combat the continuing and future environmental
problems, particularly issues that require a deeper understanding
of atmospheric chemistry.
