Problems and methodologies for studies of environmental management, with an emphasis on air pollution. Key topics include sources of pollutants, focusing on combustion chemistry for a hydrocarbon fuel; behavior of gaseous and particulate pollutants in the atmosphere including the role of meteorology and the use of dispersion equations; effects of pollutants on human health and global climate; and procedures by which air pollution standards are developed and enforced by regulatory agencies. Statistical treatment of data is included at several places in the course. 3 hrs. rec. Prerequisites: 12-251, 12-355 Co-requisite: 36-220
