Written by Paul Kaeser

Contents	importance of tropospheric ozone, reactions involved in ozone production and depletion, retrieval and interpretation of air pollution data
Suitable for	Gymnasium level
Prerequisites	reaction equations, structural formulae
Time	3 lessons
Material	computer with internet access in the last lesson

What's it about?

The students will learn about the main aspects of air pollution with the example of tropospheric ozone, as well as the relations between different pollutants. The interaction of different reactions and environmental factors in a steady state equilibrium will also be explained. Students will then be able to apply the theory when interpreting specific data obtained from the internet.
