\nAtmospheric Chemistry is an elective for the Meteorology BS, Earth and Environmental Sciences BS, and Chemistry BA and BS, and I have it is cross-listed as ESCI 5220 for graduate students. We study air quality, global ozone layer depletion, and the Ozone Hole<\/a>, which are all major environmental problems that research by atmospheric chemists has helped in guiding global solution pathways. Below you can see what the Ozone Hole looks like in September 2025. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
