Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing the modern world. The chemistry of the air within the framework of the climate system forms the main focus of this monograph. This problem-based approach to presenting global atmospheric processes begins with the chemical evolution of the clima...
The firedamp of coal mines is chiefly methane. Anaerobic bacterial decomposition of plant and animal matter, such as occurs under water, produces marsh gas, which is also methane.Shakhashiri, Bassam Z.IMIESA
Mountains are among the most sensitive ecosystems to climate change, and one of the most evident signs of climate-related effect is the continuous net loss
Climate change is a major challenge facing the modern world. The chemistry of air and it's influence on the climate system forms the main focus of this monograph. The book presents a problem-based approach to presenting global atmospheric processes, evaluating the effects of changing air compositi...
and the physiochemistry of the sediments and overlying waters. Zones where the mixing of freshwater in estuaries and submarine groundwater in coastal areas with seawater can be important sinks or sources of radionuclides80,124,125,126. Sea-level rise may move these mixing zones127,128and, ...
Climate change and air pollution are critical environmental issues both in the here and now and for the coming decades. A recent OECD report found that unless action is taken, air pollution will be the largest environmental cause of premature death worldwide by 2050. Already, air pollution level...

Climate changeReef building has responded to changes in climate, ocean chemistry, and a variety of other physical and biological factors during the geologic past, as have the taxa involved. Many of the data revealed by the geologic record are also relevant to human impacts on coral reefs today...
