Abstract
From the viewpoint of aeronomy, the atmosphere can be considered to be a mixture of gases exposed to the electromagnetic spectrum of the sun. An understanding of the dynamical and photochemical processes which occur in this environment requires consideration of atmospheric radiative transfer. For example, the rate of reaction between two constituents generally depends on the local temperature (see Chapter 2), which is a result of the effects of absorption, scattering, and emission of solar and terrestrial radiation. Further, solar radiation of particular energies can dissociate and ionize atmospheric molecules to produce reactive ions and radicals which participate in many of the important atmospheric chemical processes.
