Atmospheric chemistry of alternative fuels and alternative chlorofluorocarbons
Article Abstract:
The concern in the case of alternative fuels is the formation of tropospheric ozone caused by the rapid oxidation of the fuel and its combustion products. In the case of alternative refrigerants the dominant environmental issues are the destruction of stratospheric ozone and global warming caused in part by long atmospheric lifetimes.

Atmospheric chemistry of meteoric metals
Article Abstract:
The atmospheric chemistry of the metals that ablate from meteoroids at altitudes between 70 and 120 km in the Earth's atmosphere is reviewed. Meteoric metals clearly undergo an extremely diverse chemistry in the fascinating and relatively unexplored mesosphere/lower thermosphere (MLT) region.
