Global climate

Currently, anthropogenic S02 production exceeds natural SO2 production by a factor of 3 (Bates et al. 1992), but the impact of the former on aerosol production is largely confined to industrialised areas of the Northern Hemisphere. The oceans, on the other hand, cover approximately 70% of the Earth s surface and much of this area is remote from man-made atmospheric contaminants. Consequently, the exchange of marine DMS is of high regional importance and may affect climate globally. Since the publication of a global inventory of DMS data by...

JPL also developed a laser diode-based gas analyzer as part of the 1999 Mars Polar Lander mission to explore the possibility of life-giving elements on Mars. It has since been used on aircraft and on balloons to study weather and climate, global warming, emissions from aircraft, and numerous other areas where chemical-gas analysis is needed.

The business climate of the 1990s is different from the past. Factors such as increased competition, a global marketplace, rapid technical shifts, and greatly compressed product life cycles constantly open new opportunities for plastics in general and reinforced plastics in particular. Reinforced plastics have become widely accepted for particular appHcations because they offer a combination of design, performance, and economic benefits to the user. These materials have had a proven record of success since the 1940s.
