Hóa học khí quyển là một khu vực rộng rãi dựa trên nỗ lực khoa học. Đó là chỉ đạo xác định số lượng các hóa chất khác nhau trong không khí, nguồn gốc của các hóa chất này, và vai trò của họ trong hóa học của bầu khí quyển. Nhiều nhà hóa học khí quyển đang tham gia vào sự phát triển của kỹ thuật để đo số lượng dấu vết của hóa chất khác nhau trong bầu khí quyển, khí thải, và trong depositions. Các nhà hóa học khí quyển nghiên cứu động học và cơ chế. | ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY INTRODUCTION Atmospheric chemistry is a broadly based area of scientific endeavor. It is directed at determining the quantities of various chemicals in the atmosphere the origin of these chemicals and their role in the chemistry of the atmosphere. Many atmospheric chemists are involved in the development of techniques for the measurement of trace quantities of different chemicals in the atmosphere in emissions and in depositions. Other atmospheric chemists study the kinetics and mechanisms of chemical reactions occurring in the atmosphere. Still other atmospheric chemists are involved in the development of chemical models of the processes occurring in the atmosphere. Atmospheric chemists work closely with other disciplines engineers in characterizing anthropogenic emissions biologists and geologists in characterizing natural emissions and in evaluating the effects of air pollution physicists in dealing with gas-to-particle conversions and meteorologists physicists computer scientists and mathematicians in dealing with model development. Atmospheric chemistry plays a key role in maintaining the general well-being of the atmosphere which is extremely important for maintaining the health of the human race. In recent years there has been a growing concern about a number of atmospheric environmental problems such as the formation of photochemical oxidants acid deposition global-scale effects on stratospheric ozone the sources and fates of toxic chemicals in the atmosphere and urban and regional haze issues and the presence and effects of fine particulate matter in the atmosphere. These problems are affected by a wide variety of complex chemical and physical processes. Atmospheric chemistry is the broad subject area that describes the interrelationships between these chemical and physical processes. The principal components of the atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen. These molecules can absorb a portion of the high-energy solar ultraviolet radiation
