Atmospheric Environmental Research Critical Decisions Between Technological Progress and Preservation of Nature

Written by internationally recognized experts in atmospheric research, this book focuses on the state of the art in topical environmental issues such as global change, forest decline, ozone depletion and acid rain. Our present knowledge of forest damage is summarized as an example of atmospheric impact on nature. Paul Crutzen, winner of the Nobel Prize in chemistry, tackles the question of how the changing chemical composition of the atmosphere influences global chemistry and climate. The future environmental impact of traffic is described from the point of view of the motor industry. These and other contributions illustrate the interaction which exists between atmosphere, technology and nature.Moller, Detlev is the author of 'Atmospheric Environmental Research Critical Decisions Between Technological Progress and Preservation of Nature' with ISBN 9783540635598 and ISBN 3540635599.
