  • Exchange and Transport of Air Pollutants over Complex Terrain and the Sea

    Field Measurements and Numerical Modelling; Ship, Ocean Platform and Laboratory Measurements

    Edited by Soren E. Larsen, Franz Fiedler, Peter Borrel ...
    Series Book 9 - Transport and Chemical Transformation of Pollutants in the Troposphere
    As the regional models required to understand and control the generation, distribution and deposition of air pollutants become more precise, the need to understand the detailed effects of hilly and mountainous terrain becomes more acute. The Alpine regions and the mountainous Mediterranean coasts have large effets on the way the pollutant burden is spread in their areas. Similarly an understanding ... Read more

  • Law and Economics of International Climate Change Policy

    by John O. Niles, Eric Levy, R. Schwarze ...
    Series Book 30 - Environment & Policy
    International climate change policy can be broadly divided into two periods: A first period, where a broad consensus was reached to tackle the risk of global warming in a coordinated global effort, and a second period, where this consensus was finally framed into a concrete policy. The first period started at the "Earth Summit" of Rio de Janeiro in 1992, where the United Nations Framework ... Read more
