About this collection
We are delighted to share with you a selection of the papers which will be presented at our Faraday Discussion on Atmospheric chemistry in the Anthropocene taking place in York, UK in May 2017. More information about the event may be found here: http://rsc.li/anthropocene-fd2017. Additional articles will be added to the collection as they are published. The final versions of all the articles presented and a record of the live discussions will be published after the event.
Human activities have greatly impacted the Earth system so much so that it has ushered in a new epoch - the Anthropocene. The consequent changes - observed and predicted – occur in the oceans, the terrestrial regions, and the biosphere, and have raised important societal issues such as climate change, ocean acidification, air quality degradation, and ozone layer depletion. This Discussion focuses on emerging issues such as interactions between anthropogenic and biogenic emissions, new mechanisms important for atmospheric chemistry, the impacts of climate on air quality, and new instrumental tools and platforms for atmospheric chemistry.
