Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: From Air Pollution to Climate Change - Hardcover
The only single-source reference available on atmospheric chemistry, aerosols, and atmospheric models
This fully revised and expanded version of John H. Seinfeld's successful Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics of Air Pollution provides a rigorous, comprehensive treatment of the chemistry of the atmosphere. With new chapters on such important topics as cloud physics, nucleation, and wet deposition, this book offers a truly up-to-date examination of atmospheric chemistry today, including:
- Chemistry of the stratosphere and troposphere
- Formation, growth, dynamics, thermodynamics, and properties of aerosols
- Meteorology of air pollution
- Transport, diffusion, and removal of species in the atmosphere
- Formation and chemistry of clouds
- Interaction of atmospheric chemistry and climate
- Radiative and climatic effects of gases and particles
- Formulation of mathematical chemical/transport models of the atmosphere.
Complete with solved examples, problems graded according to difficulty, and hundreds of illustrations, this state-of-the art reference is an ideal resource for both students and professionals in all areas of engineering as well as atmospheric science.

From the Publisher:
Written as a textbook as well as a reference, the authors provide a detailed treatment of the chemistry of the atmosphere. Some of the elements covered are: formation, growth, dynamics, meteorology of air pollution, the interaction of atmospheric chemistry and climate, the radiative and climatic effects of gases and particles, and much more. Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics will leave the reader with an increased understanding of atmospheric processes.
From the Back Cover:
This brand-new successor to John H. Seinfeld's popular Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics of Air Pollution is the most comprehensive single source available on atmospheric chemistry, aerosols, and atmospheric models.
Retaining much of the core content of the original, this updated version has been substantially revised to reflect the many recent advances made in understanding the complex dynamics of the atmosphere. New chapters cover areas such as cloud physics, organic aerosols, nucleation, and climate, in addition to stratospheric chemistry, wet deposition and acid rain, chemical transport models, and more.
Beginning with a detailed examination of atmospheric composition, this book offers a rigorous treatment of the chemistry of the stratosphere and troposphere; the chemistry of the atmospheric aqueous phase; the transport, diffusion, and removal of species in the atmosphere; the formation, growth, dynamics, and properties of aerosols; the meteorology of air pollution; cloud microphysics; and mathematical chemical/transport modeling. It explores the interaction of atmospheric chemistry and climate, as well as the radiative and climatic effects of gases and particles.
Each topic is developed from first principles, providing a solid grounding in the underlying science of atmospheric processes that readers can easily extend and apply to their own work. Worked-out examples and appendices facilitate quick and thorough understanding of the material presented in the text. Problems are graded according to degree of difficulty, from straightforward use of concepts for the novice to advanced applications for those with more experience.
Unmatched in breadth and depth, this peerless reference is indispensable reading for students and professionals at the cutting edge of atmospheric science.
