Astrochemistry Lecture Note Prepared by Adwin Boogert Herschel Science
Center - NASA A short lecture note. Kind of a nice basic course on
astrochemistry, though: the chemistry of interstellar space, chemical reactions
in space, techniques for observing interstellar molecules, evolution of the
molecule and its implications for astrobiology.

This is a lecture note by Prof. Jesse Kroll, focusing on chemical
transformations in trace species of Earth's atmosphere. The note highlighted how
human activity impacts both air quality and climate-from covering major concepts
such as photochemistry and ozone-depleting compounds to aerosol chemistry. The
note provides a comprehensive summary of what drives atmospheric chemistry, from
sources and sinks of greenhouse gases to names and processes. The paper is
designed for better understanding of the atmospheric processes concerning
anthropogenic influences and their implication in environmental science.
