Global environmental chemistry climate change

A textbook used at Harvard University for a fundamental course for global environmental issues for students of environmental science and social policy science major. Fundamental physics and chemistry of the atmosphere, carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycles, tropospheric chemistry and rain chemistry, climate change, and other topics are explained in an accessible manner. 

Peter J. Dillon, Ph.D. (Toronto), F.R.S.C. is a Professor in the Environmental Resource Studies and Chemistry Departments at Trent University where he is Director of the new Water Quality Center. His research interests focus on biogeochemistry effects of regional and global-scale stressors including acid deposition, climate change, mercury and other trace metals on environmental chemistry. 

From the viewpoint of the relevance of atmospheric chemistry with global environmental issues, processes, chemical compotmds, ozone variability, climate change, and so on are discussed in each chapter by experts in each field. It is unique as it includes essays by senior scientists in atmospheric research at the end of each chapter.
