Dynamics, transport and photochemistry in the Middle atmosphere of the southern hemisphere

Book ·
OSTI ID:6263884
The recent discovery of the springtime ozone hole over Antarctica had led to world-wide concern about the effects of man-made pollutants on the fragile ozone layer in the stratosphere. Atmospheric scientists have been galvanized into intense interdisciplinary research on a region of the atmosphere that was previously paid little attention. A NATO Advanced Research Workshop, brought together many of the scientists who are at the forefront of middle atmosphere research. The aim of the book is to provide a wide-ranging, indepth review of meteorology, tracer transport and photochemistry of the middle atmosphere in the southern hemisphere. The review articles collected in this book provide a valuable introduction to these topics for atmospheric scientists and for those concerned with environmental issues.
