Introduction to Atmospheric Chemistry (ATM 160)
Offered every Winter quarter. ATM 160 is intended for upper-division undergraduates and graduate students. We first briefly review the concepts and atmospheric applications of chemical equilibria, kinetics, and photochemistry. We then quantitatively examine the chemistry of the atmosphere through topics such as gas-phase photochemistry, photochemical smog, acid formation, stratospheric ozone depletion, and global climate change.
