Majority of the world?s population is affected by air pollution. Contamination of air is no more an only an atmospheric problem but now has become a health concern too. Under the Clean Air Act of 1971, a set of air pollutants are designated as criteria pollutants. These are suspected to be strongly harming the public health and the environment as compared to other primary and secondary pollutants. Globally, this category of air pollutants has been given less attention, only few studies have been reported in this area. This book begins with a short background on criteria air pollutants and their sources, sinks and chemistry. The chapters explore the detailed nature of primary pollutants criteria pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, particulate matter and lead. Their reaction mechanisms, climate change potency, environmental health effects on plants and human life are discussed. The book also covers secondary pollutants such as ozone. The book discusses ozone chemistry and its environmental health effects. This book act as a valuable tool for students in Environmental Science, Biological Science and Agriculture, as well as environmental consultants and professionals involved in air quality research and the application of air quality guidelines and advice. 606 $aAnalytical chemistry 606 $aEnvironmental chemistry 606 $aClimate change 606 $aAtmospheric sciences 606 $aAnalytical Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C11006 606 $aEnvironmental Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U15000 606 $aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000 606 $aAtmospheric Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G36000 615 0$aAnalytical chemistry. 615 0$aEnvironmental chemistry. 615 0$aClimate change. 615 0$aAtmospheric sciences. 615 14$aAnalytical Chemistry. 615 24$aEnvironmental Chemistry. 615 24$aClimate Change/Climate Change Impacts. 615 24$aAtmospheric Sciences. 676 $a543 700 $aSaxena$b Pallavi$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0781350 702 $aSonwani$b Saurabh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910357826603321 996 $aCriteria Air Pollutants and their Impact on Environmental Health$92526337 997 $aUNINA
