The natural movement of air from one location to another in the planet's atmosphere due to differences in air pressure. For major urban centers, gaseous pollution produced there from, for instance, ...
Ammonia
Chemistry; Atmospheric chemistry
The molecular formula for ammonia is NH 3 . Ammonia is one of the most important inorganic nitrogen compounds in atmospheric water droplets. It reacts with strong acids and is one of the only known ...
Ocean
Chemistry; Atmospheric chemistry
The oceans cover approximately 70% of the Earth's surface and are apparently unique in the solar system (although keep an eye on some of the giant planets' moons. . . ). The oceans are important for ...
PH
Chemistry; Atmospheric chemistry
The negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution. It is the quantitative expression of the acidity and alkalinity of a solution and has a scale that generally ranges from about ...
Humidity
Chemistry; Atmospheric chemistry
The moisture content of air. Relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water vapour actually present in the air to the greatest amount possible at that temperature (the saturation vapour ...
