Task Group
Chairman: S.E. Schwartz
Members:
J.G. Calvert, T.M.
Tavares, L. Klasinc,
and T.R. Roberts
Completion Date: 2002 - terminated
Objective:
Revision of previous Glossary (Pure
Appl. Chem., 62(11), pp.2167-2219, 1990)
Description:
A comprehensive Glossary of Terms pertinent to atmospheric chemistry
was prepared and reviewed and published by IUPAC a decade ago (Calvert,1990).
This activity will update that glossary to include terms that have become
important subsequent to publication of that document (as well as omissions)
and as necessary amend or elaborate previosly presented definitions.
Widely used or generally accepted acronyms will also be included. This
activity will be conducted by web-based and e-mail solicitation of input
from a broad spectrum of atmospheric chemists. Review and resolution
of conflicts will be by Commission on Atmospheric Chemistry in the first
instance followed by IDCNS.
