Measurement Challenges in Atmospheric Chemistry
P
resenting discussions on state-ofthe-art techniques and instrumentation used for atmospheric measurements, Measurement Challenges in Atmospheric Chemistry summarizes progress in a variety of areas of atmospheric research and identifies areas that should now be addressed by the research community. It provides in-depth coverage of the measurement of both aerosols and gases and reviews techniques for measuring species in the troposphere and mésosphère. An excellent reference for atmospheric scientists and an ideal introduction to the field for analytical and gas-phase researchers interested in atmospheric measurement.
