化学理学学士-海洋和大气化学

化学科学学士学位课程的“海洋和大气化学”选项使学生可以将基于实验室的化学原理理解扩展到海洋环境，世界海洋和大气中。通过介绍化学海洋学和大气化学以及适用于这些学科的特殊技术，您可以在化学方面打下坚实的基础。海洋化学家致力于了解地球化学的分布并预测海洋环境中化学物种的命运。这些研究可能包括营养物质和金属的局部和全球循环，海洋中有机化合物的结局，痕量金属污染模式或甲烷和二氧化碳等天然气的产生和循环。由于温室气体增加引起的大气污染和气候变化问题属于大气化学领域。化学研究涵盖从平流层臭氧层到海洋深处的整个全球环境。
The Marine and Atmospheric Chemistry Option of the Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemistry allows the student to extend their laboratory-based understanding of the principles of chemistry to the marine environment, the world ocean, and atmosphere. Your solid foundation in chemistry is broadened by an introduction to chemical oceanography and atmospheric chemistry and the special techniques appropriate to those disciplines. Marine chemists work to understand geochemical distributions and to predict the fate of chemical species in the marine environment. These studies may include both local and global cycles of nutrients and metals, the fate of organic compounds in the sea, trace metal contamination patterns or the generation and cycling of natural gases, like methane and carbon dioxide. Problems of atmospheric pollution and climate change due to increasing greenhouse gases are in the domain of atmospheric chemistry. Chemical research spans the full range of global environments from the stratospheric ozone layer to depths of the ocean.
