ESM 571 Atmospheric Physics
Cycles of trace gases in the Earth’s atmosphere and their role in the environment. Emission, dispersal, and removal of natural and man-made trace constituents in the atmosphere that determine the Earth’s climate and stratospheric ozone layer. Also offered for undergraduate-level credit as ESM 471; this course is the same as Ph 471/571 and may only be taken only once for credit.
