Atmospheric Chemistry & Physics : From air pollution to climate change (2^nd Ed.)

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, Second Edition provides a rigorous and comprehensive treatment of the chemistry of the atmosphere including aerosols and air pollution, their interaction, the effects of gases and particles, and mathematical chemical/transport models of the atmosphere. Each chapter develops the central results from fundamental principles, which gives the reader an understanding of the underlying science.
