Reviews

“This volume takes readers on a fascinating ozone journey. … This is a great, very accessible read and a valuable reference that I have already recommended to students and colleagues–and I will continue to do so well into the future.” (Robyn Schofield, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 91 (1), March, 2016) “Ozone in the atmosphere is a monograph which addresses all important aspects of this crucial triatomic component of the atmosphere. The book is clearly written and comprehensive, with a focus on atmospheric chemistry and dynamics. The authors present a well-balanced mixture of chemistry, meteorology, and some analytical chemistry of this molecule of many aspects. … the monograph is a useful resource for scientists in atmospheric research and analytical chemists working in an environmental context.” (Thorsten Hoffmann, Analyticaland Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 407, June, 2015) “This is a concise but still detailed discussion of atmospheric ozone. Fabian (Technical Univ. of Munich) and Dameris (German Aerospace Center) explain the basic chemistry in all sections in a very clear and technical manner. … This book will be valuable for students and professionals with a solid chemistry background. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (T. N. Chase, Choice, Vol. 52 (6), February, 2015)
