Atmospheric Chemistry in the Mediterranean Region

Volume 1 - Context and Pollutant Distribution

Produktform: E-Buch Text Elektronisches Buch in proprietärem

This two-volume set provides an extensive review of the abundant past and recent literature on the atmospheric chemistry in the Mediterranean region. The books document the experience gained on the atmospheric composition over the Mediterranean basin and close areas after more than almost four decades of studies, starting from first aerosol samples collected during oceanographic cruises in the early 1980s and including discoveries from subsequent surface monitoring stations, intensive campaigns, satellite climatologies, laboratory studies, air quality studies and chemistry-transport and climate models. In ten thematic sections, the authors examine the sources and fates of atmospheric pollutants over the Mediterranean basin and what we know about their major impacts on air quality and health, on the radiative budget and climate, on marine chemistry and biogeochemistry. This overview not only considers the full cycle of both aerosol and reactive gases including emission and sources, transport and transformation, and sinks and deposition, but also addresses the main impacts of the regional atmospheric chemistry.The volumes are an initiative from the ending ChArMEx project that has federated many studies on those topics in the past decade, and will update the scientific knowledge by integrating the ChArMEx and non-ChArMEx literature. The books are contributed by a large pool of well-known authors from the respective fields, mainly from France and Greece, but also Cyprus, Germany, Italy, Israel, Spain and Switzerland. Volume 1 provides background information on the Mediterranean atmosphere, and focuses on the synoptic and dynamic conditions affecting pollutant concentrations over the Mediterranean basin, aerosol concentrations and variability, and reactive gas concentrations and variability. The intended audience is the academic community working on atmospheric chemistry and its impacts on climate, air quality and marine biogeochemistry, especially teams having a special interest in the Mediterranean region, which includes many countries and institutes not only from the Mediterranean region. weiterlesen
