Atmospheric Pollution and Environmental Change: Key Issues in Environmental Change
Autor Sarah Metcalfe, Dick Derwenten Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 apr 2005
Approaching atmospheric change in the context of its effects on the natural environment, people and the global climate system, Atmospheric Pollution and Environmental Change examines:
·Atmospheric pollution at global, continental and local scales
·The development of policy at national and international levels
·The uses of computer models to help us understand and forecast the behaviour of pollutants and their impacts
·The success (or otherwise) of policies designed to reduce air pollution and the prospects for the future.
With extensive references to useful web sites and further reading, Atmospheric Pollution and Environmental Change will be of great benefit to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Recenzii
'This book is an authoritative but accessible synthesis of environmental pollution as a major cause of environmental change ... ...a very useful book that addresses many of the issues covered by atmospheric pollution in a very accessible way... I found this book as complete and informative as possible and of utmost importance to interested readers, whatever their background or motivations.'
