Chemical kinetics and atmospheric chemistry: role of data evaluation
Article Abstract:
The important role of data evaluation in atmospheric chemistry is illustrated well on the basis of developments in the years of national and international regulation of atmospheric pollutant emissions. The historical background to kinetic data evaluation for atmospheric chemistry and the advancement in knowledge of the detailed chemistry of the homogenous gas-phase reactions which control the composition of the atmosphere, as reflected in the successive evaluations is traced out.

Determination of atmospheric lifetimes via the measurement of OH radical kinetics
Article Abstract:
The concept of an atmospheric lifetime is useful in considering the environmental effects of a variety of naturally occurring and anthropogenically produced chemicals. The role that is played by reactions of tropospheric hydroxyl radicals (OH) in the quantification of atmospheric lifetime and the range of methods used for its estimation and its applicability in quantifying some environmental impacts of source gas emissions is examined.

Isotope effects in the chemistry of atmospheric trace compounds
Article Abstract:
Isotope analysis is conducted to refine the understanding of chemistry of atmospheric trace compounds, their tropospheric and stratospheric budgets, and their physical and chemical links. Even though isotopes constitute excellent tracers, their variations do no affect the chemistry of the atmosphere.
