内容
This established textbook offers one-stop, comprehensive coverage of air pollution, all in an accessible style. The fourth edition, broadly updated and developed throughout, brings a brand-new chapter providing a broader overview to the topic for general reading, and includes fresh materials on noise and light pollution, alongside air pollution mitigation and control, tailored to the needs of both amateur and specialist users. Retaining a quantitative perspective, the topics covered include: gaseous and particulate air pollutants, measurement techniques, meteorology and modelling, area sources, mobile sources, indoor air, effects on plants, materials, humans and animals, impact on climate change and ozone profiles and air quality legislations. The last chapter presents a suite of sampling and laboratory practical experiments that can be used for either classroom teachings, or as part of research projects. This book serves as a useful reading resource for upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate courses specialising in air pollution, with dedicated case studies at the end of each chapter, as well as a list of revision questions provided at the end as a complementary section.
