Preface
This is an extended version of lectures that were held at the summer workshop
Atmosphiirische Umweltforschung im Spannungsfeld zwischen Technik und Natur (Atmospheric Environmental Research between Technology and Nature) at the Technical University in Cottbus on July 16, 1996. We were very happy to have Paul J. Crutzen, winner of the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1995, presenting the key lecture on globally changing chemistry in the atmosphere. Over the last decades, atmospheric chemistry has been established step by step, not just as an applied discipline of chemistry, but also as a key discipline for our understanding of air pollution, biogeochemical cycling, and climactic processes as well. In fact, the new definition of meteorology as the science of physics and chemistry of the atmosphere expresses this development very well. The chemistry of the atmosphere is strongly influenced by anthr
