Book Description
More classics for environmental scientists from Wiley-Interscience… Trace Atmospheric Constituents Properties, Transformations, and Fates Edited by Stephen E. Schwartz Providing the only comprehensive coverage available of the chemical and physical processes involved in the formation of acid rain, this book details the transformation and deposition of atmospheric pollutants. Treats relevant laboratory and theoretical chemistry, field studies, and computer modeling methods, and includes coverage of the aqueous-phase chemistry of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, an analysis of soot and the analytical chemistry and health effects of inorganic and organic sulfur compounds present in ambient and industrial aerosols, and more. 1983 (0 471-87640-2) 547 pp. Systems Ecology An Introduction Howard Thomas Odum An integrated theoretical and applied introduction to systems ecology that uses energy diagrammatic language to explain basic concepts of systems, modelling, and simulation. Teaches energetics while at the same time dealing with the issues of organization, entropy, information, complexity, diversity, frequency, and power and the ways these determine the nature of real systems. Includes analog and digital computer modelling, enabling readers without prior programming experience to create computer models of ecological processes. 1983 (0 471-65277-6) 644 pp.
