WHAT: Junior and senior researchers identified, discussed, and studied outstanding issues related to atmospheric boundary layer processes closely linked to atmospheric chemistry WHEN: 20–24 November 2006 WHERE: Castelldefels, Spain he importance of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) dynamics and physics in controlling key aspects of atmospheric chemistry is becoming increasingly recognized. Proce...

[1] We extend the theory of climate feedbacks to include atmospheric chemistry. A change in temperature caused by a radiative forcing will include, in general, a contribution from the chemical change that is fed back into the climate system; likewise, the change in atmospheric burdens caused by a chemical forcing will include a contribution from the associated climate change that is fed back in...

A química atmosférica dos álcoois, os quais são largamente empregados como combustíveis de veículos leves (como o etanol no Brasil) e solventes industriais, foi revista com o foco centralizado em seus aspectos de cinética e mecanismos de reação. A oxidação dos álcoois na atmosfera envolve sua reação com radicais hidroxil (OH). São apresentadas constantes de velocidade para a reação álcool-OH de...

Three atmospheric-chemistry sensors form part of the ENVISAT payload that has been placed into orbit in March 2002. This paper presents reviews the end-toend performance of the GOMOS, MIPAS and SCIAMACHY observation systems and will discuss the product quality control assessment of these instruments. An important part of the quality assessment is the Geophysical Validation. At the ACVT Validati...

Planning for sustainable cities requires the inclusion of environmental aspects like air quality. Within a planning perspective of 20-30 years, there are various factors influencing future air quality: Worldwide: Climate change may change global background pollution levels and it will affect the atmospheric chemistry. Europe: Many efforts are taken to reduce emissions of air pollutants and clim...
