Atmospheric Environmental Chemistry

This lecture note deals with the chemistry of the Earth's atmosphere, which includes both stratospheric and tropospheric chemistry. It encompasses the processes involved in the formation and destruction of ozone, the chemistry involved in the formation of smog, precipitation, and atmospheric aerosols. Urban and indoor atmospheres are discussed as well, including the role of air pollutants and their impacts on human health and the environment. Subsequently, the book focuses specifically on global climate chemistry whereby all the changes in the atmospher, which contribute to climate changes, will be well-eloquently expressed to this reader. This book could be the best source among students for those pursuing knowledge in atmospheric sciences, environment chemistry, and global climates.

Environmental chemistry by NPTEL

Environmental chemistry by NPTEL

This NPTEL online lecture series will go through an in-depth discussion on environmental chemistry, especially with respect to atmospheric composition, the behavior of contaminants, and natural degradation pathways. Lectures cover control techniques in air pollution, the major sources of water pollution, and the processes of water treatment. In addition, the lecture deals with soil pollution: its causes, effects, and remedial measures. Special attention is accorded to contaminants and their interactions with the environment, so this is a great book for students and researchers alike, interested in knowing the influence of chemical processes on the environment and how these can be abated through technological and chemical means.

Chemicals in the Environment Toxicology and Public Health

This note tackles the very complex issue of the relationship between environmental chemicals and human health. It explores epidemiological approaches to disease causation, biostatistical methods for evaluating chemical exposure, and the effects of chemical reactions within the body. The content covers risk assessment techniques used in the U.S. for regulatory decision-making and public health policy. It is a must for students in the fields of toxicology, environmental health, and public health: it offers a challenging examination of interactions between environmental chemicals and human biology and the approaches used to evaluate and counteract their risks.
