The new challenge in atmospheric chemistry is to understand the intercontinental transport and transformation of gases and aerosols. This book describes the observational and modeling techniques used to understand the atmospheric composition from satellites, aircraft and ground based platforms. The two common ideas presented throughout&nbsp;are the role of each component in an observing system for atmospheric composition, and the advances necessary to improve the&nbsp;understanding of atmospheric composition. The&nbsp;objective of this book is to&nbsp;provide&nbsp;a larger audience the&nbsp;opportunity to&nbsp;learn about&nbsp;these&nbsp;techniques and advances&nbsp;in atmospheric composition.
Edited by 5 prominent editors with different expertise and coming from 4 different countries (US and Europe) Provides a truly global overview of the state of the art knowledge in both satellite, aircraft and ground based remote sensing techniques Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
