Detlev Möller

Chemistry of the Climate System (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Climate change is a major challenge facing modern society. Chemistry of the Climate System provides a physicochemical understanding of atmospheric processes. The chemical substances and reactions found in the earth's atmosphere are presented along with their influence on the global climate system, evaluating the effects of changing air compositions and possibilities for interference with these processes through the use of chemistry.

Autorenporträt

Prof. Möller studied chemistry at the Humboldt University Berlin, where he received his doctoral degree in 1972. He worked as a research assistant at the HUB, before starting his research in atmospheric chemistry at the "Akademie der Wissenschaften der DDR" (AdW). After his habilitation in 1982 he worked as an associate at various institutes, e.g. the "Forschungsstelle für Umweltgestaltung" and the "Heinrich-Hertz-Institut für Geomagnetismus und Atmosphärenforschung". Currently he is working as a full Professor at the Brandenburgische Technische Universität, BTU (former: Technischen Universität Cottbus). He is a member of the scientific communities Erfurt, Berlin-Leipzig and Hungary.

Rezensionen

"One can see that Möller did an enormous piece of work. His efforts produced an important and wonderful result. I consider this volume as one of the best books in the field, if not the best one. Möller's approach is unique in such a sense that he places atmospheric (and environmental) chemistry in the frame of the climate system. As Paul Crutzen notes in the Preface, it is also unusual that he treats the history of all the problems discussed. The structure of the book is also particular. So, the author is congratulated for preparing this nice book."
