Climate change is a major challenge facing modern society. The chemistry of air and its influence on the climate system forms the main focus of this book. Vol. 1 of Chemistry of the Climate System provides the reader with a physicochemical understanding of atmospheric processes. The chemical substances and reactions found in the Earth's atmosphere are presented along with their influence on the global climate system.

"[C]ompiles recent advances in aerosols, clouds, and precipitation remote sensing from new satellite observations. The book examines a wide range of measurements from microwave (both active and passive), visible, and infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It also explores the recent launches of satellites that involve advanced active and passive remote sensing instruments, and the new opportunities and challenges they offer for exploring novel methods and applications, and, potentially, for further progressions"--

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing the modern world. The chemistry of the air within the framework of the climate system forms the main focus of this monograph. This problem-based approach to presenting global atmospheric processes begins with the chemical evolution of the climate system in order to evaluate the effects of changing air composition as well as possibilities for interference within these processes. Chemical interactions of the atmosphere with the biosphere and hydrosphere are treated in the sense of a multi-phase chemistry. From the perspective of a ""chemical

Cet ouvrage présente les phénomènes chimiques qui interviennent dans la biosphère. Il permet de mieux comprendre comment leur perturbation par les pratiques anthropiques peut conduire à des bouleversements de notre environnement. Tous les types de réactions chimiques sont examinés : les réactions ioniques de la lithosphère et celles de l’hydrosphère, les réactions radicalaires de l’atmosphère, les transformations moléculaires qui dominent dans les organismes vivants. Pour faciliter la lecture par des non-chimistes, de nombreuses figures, formules et équations sont données, surtout à titre d’illustrations. En outre, des annexes et un glossaire permettent d’éliminer en grande partie l’obstacle des notations, termes et expressions en usage en chimie. Le lecteur pourra acquérir une vision globale de l’importance de la chimie dans la biosphère et des conséquences graves que peut entraîner l’activité humaine.
