| 701-0471-AAL | Atmospheric Chemistry Belegung ist NUR erlaubt für MSc Studierende, die diese Lerneinheit als Auflagenfach verfügt haben. Alle andere Studierenden (u.a. auch Mobilitätsstudierende, Doktorierende) können diese Lerneinheit NICHT belegen. | 3 KP | 6R | M. Ammann, C. Heald, C. Mohr | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | This is a self-study course targeted at Master students who did not follow the bachelor course "atmospheric chemistry" or equivalent, providing a general introduction into atmospheric chemistry. It introduces the relevant fundamental concepts, which are explored in the context of key environmental issues, such as air pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion, and connections to climate change. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | At the end of this course, students are able to: 1. describe the structure of the atmosphere and list atmospheric components and their main properties 2. define and describe the chemical and physical processes in the stratosphere and troposphere, follow reaction mechanisms, and apply rate laws 3. describe the physical and chemical principles of air pollution and summarize the most important legislative measures 4. discuss the local, regional, and global aspects of interactions between air quality, ecosystem health, and climate | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | - Origin and properties of the atmosphere: composition (gases and aerosols), atmospheric structure, UV radiation, transport timescales - Kinetics of gas phase reactions: rate laws, mechanisms of bimolecular and termolecular reactions. - Stratospheric chemistry: Chapman cycle, catalytic ozone destruction cycles, polar ozone hole, Montreal protocol - Tropospheric chemistry: oxidizing capacity of the troposphere and the role of OH, oxidation and global budgets of CO and CH4, role of NOx, and the global tropospheric O3 budget - Surface ozone chemistry: HOx-NOx cycle, role of VOCs, O3 isopleth, ozone production efficiency - Aerosols: primary and secondary sources, composition, quantities and measures, connections to climate - Multiphase chemistry: solubility of gases, Raoult’s Law and hygroscopicity, kinetics of gas to particle transfer, N2O5 chemistry, aqueous phase sulfur chemistry, secondary organic aerosol formation - Air quality: role of planetary boundary layer, deposition processes, summer- versus winter-smog, environmental problems, legislation, long-term trends - Global aspects: air quality - climate interactions | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Skript | The slides, notes and exercises of the preceding edition of the bachelor course 701-0471-01L Atmospheric Chemistry will be provided. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Basic courses in chemistry and physics are expected | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Kurzbeschreibung | This course covers the chemical and physical processes controlling the composition of the troposphere and stratosphere and introduces the relevant fundamentals for processes in the gas phase, in aerosols and clouds. These concepts are explored in the context of key environmental issues, such as urban air pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion, and air quality connections to climate change. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Skript | Lecture materials (slides) are provided continuously during the semester, at least 2 days before each lecture. Annotations and corrections are provided at the latest within the same week. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Attendance of the lecture "Atmosphäre" LV 701-0023-00L or equivalent knowledge is a pre-requisite, and basic courses in physics and chemistry are expected. On Mondays (or upon agreement) a tutorial is offered. This allows the students to discuss unresolved issues from the lecture or to discuss the problems of the exercise series and their solution. Participation is recommended. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
