Composition of Titan's Atmosphere [PDF]
As a result of the 13-year exploration of the Saturn system by the Cassini-Huygens mission (2004–17), there has been a revolution in our understanding of Titan, Saturn's largest satellite. Titan's atmosphere shows the most complex chemistry in the solar system.

Effects of ship emissions on air quality in the Baltic Sea region simulated with three different chemistry transport models [PDF]
The Baltic Sea is a highly frequented shipping area with busy shipping lanes close to densely populated regions. Exhaust emissions from ship traffic into the atmosphere do not only enhance air pollution, they also affect the Baltic Sea environment ...

Limitation of Atmospheric Composition by Combustion–Explosion in Exoplanetary Atmospheres [PDF]
Abstract This work presents theoretical studies that combine aspects of combustion and explosion theory with exoplanetary atmospheric science. Super-Earths could possess a large amount of molecular hydrogen depending on disk, planetary, and stellar properties.
