This book investigates various aspects of the phenomenon of
atmospheric oxygen depletion, and summarizes our current knowledge
of atmospheric oxygen. The authors address the currently available
records indicating that atmospheric oxygen is undergoing nonlinear
decline. The consensus in the research community is that the main
reason for this decline is the combustion of fossil fuels (which is
growing nonlinearly). However, the short length of the currently
available records, alongside the technological and social
uncertainties that may risk speed up oxygen depletion, raise
questions about the time scale of the decline, in particular, when
oxygen depletion may cause physiological impact on humans and
animals. The authors analyze this uncertainty to postulate the near
term impact of depleted atmospheric oxygen, and perform
multidisciplinary complex modelling of oxygen with long-term
horizon estimations.
