A couple of songs from Manu Chao ("Me Gustas Tu"
and "La
Vida
Tombola") before the start of the review.
The last day of classes and the first 50 minutes of close to 5
hours of scheduled reviews for the Final Exams. You can find the
times and locations of the two remaining reviews on the Final Exam
Study Outline. Be sure to have a look at the bottom of the
study
outline, it provides some additional information about questions that
will be on the exam.
The following figures are from today's review. The large
numbers at the top left
of each figure refer to sections on the Study Outline.
Basic information about the 5 most
abundant gases in the atmosphere.
Tropospheric ozone (above) is a
pollutant and the key ingredient in photochemical smog.
Stratospheric ozone is covered below.
Thinning of the ozone layer in the
stratosphere is not the cause of climate change and global
warming. The small additional amount of UV light arriving at the
ground will not cause global warming. That UV light can cause
skin cancer and cataracts, that sort of thing, but not global warming.
The review will start up again at
this point at 2 pm on Thursday afternoon in Education 353.
