It is designed to provide a rigorous, comprehensive treatment of the chemistry of air pollutants in the ambient air, the meteorology of air pollution, and the transport, diffusion and removal of the pollution species in the atmosphere. In this course, students will learn the methods and models, which would allow to predict the concentration profile that would result from any specified set of pollution emissions for any specific meteorological conditions at any location for any period.

CILO-1: Apply atmospheric general circulation theory and mass/energy conservation principles to evaluate the importance of meteorology on air pollution dispersion. CILO-2: Utilize general chemical oxidation mechanisms to assess the formation of secondary air pollutants and their impacts on air quality and global climate.
