Fundamentals of Air Pollution, 6th Edition is an authoritative textbook designed to present the physical, chemical, and biological dimensions of atmospheric science and pollution management. The volume organizes its technical coverage across six structured parts that progress from foundational scientific concepts to exposure risks, tropospheric behavior, biogeochemical cycles, control engineering, and emergent environmental challenges.
The material details atmospheric physics and chemistry, pollutant kinetics, equilibrium state transformations, and global biogeochemistry. Specialized chapters guide learners through source sampling methods, ambient air quality monitoring protocols, mathematical modeling applications, and life cycle assessment framework tools. Further analysis addresses pollutant impacts on terrestrial ecosystems, structural materials, and atmospheric visibility.
Pedagogical elements including worked examples, step-by-step calculations, reference data tables, and an extensive glossary assist students in applying theoretical principles. Published by Academic Press, this textbook provides structured instruction suitable for upper-level undergraduate offerings in environmental sciences as well as advanced graduate courses in environmental engineering, atmospheric science, and public health.
