The composition of museum atmospheres
Atmospheric Environment. Part B. Urban Atmosphere, 1990Indoor pollutants can damage cultural property stored in museums, art galleries, libraries and archives. The paper reviews the atmospheric substances of concern and their sources. A relatively small number of measurements available for the interiors are restricted to just a few gases.

Isotopic Composition of the Martian Atmosphere
Science, 1976Results from the neutral mass spectrometer carried on the aeroshell of Viking 1 show evidence for NO in the upper atmosphere of Mars and indicate that the isotopic composition of carbon and oxygen is similar to that of Earth. Mars is enriched in 15 N relative to Earth by about 75 percent, a consequence of escape ...

Atmospheric Scales of Motion and Atmospheric Composition
2000Weather phenomena occur over a very broad range of scales of space and time, from the global circulation systems that extend around the earth’s circumference to the small eddies that cause cigarette smoke to swirl and mix with clear air. Each circulation can be described in terms of its approximate horizontal diameter and lifetime.

Composition of the Martian atmosphere
Space Science Reviews, 1991Data on the composition of the Martian atmosphere obtained by instruments aboard the Viking spacecraft are not of sufficient accuracy to address important questions regarding the composition and history of Mars. Laboratory analyses of gases trapped in glassy phases of shergottite meteorite EETA 79001 yield precise data, but it remains to be ascertained

The composition of planetary atmospheres
Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 1971Abstract The present status of research on the composition of planetary atmospheres is reviewed. It is shown that CO 2 is the major constituent in the atmospheres of Venus and Mars, and that H 2 is almost certainly the dominant constituent for the outer planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Ground based i.r.

The Composition of Atmospheric Air
1951For many reasons it is desirable to have a complete knowledge of the composition of the atmosphere as regards both the molecular species present and their absolute quantities. This applies not only to the main components, but also to rare species of polyatomic molecules whose importance in the radiation balance is often quite out of proportion to their

An Introduction to Measurements of Atmospheric Composition
2010This chapter reviews the basic concepts under the measurements of atmospheric composition. The major challenges are discussed, including the low concentration (usually less than one part per million) of interesting trace gases and the interference among the thousands of species involved in the atmosphere chemistry.

THE COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE OF THE TERRESTRIAL ATMOSPHERE
1963Abstract : After a generel description of the various regions of the terrestrial atmospbere, an analysis of physical conditions leading to the knowledge of the heterosphere is given. Molecular dissociation and diffusion in the lower thermosphere are introduced to determine the concentration of various constituents (N2, O2, O, N, He, H).
