Abstract: While there has been a general understanding and appreciation of the science involved in both global warming and stratospheric ozone depletion by atmospheric scientists for some time, detailed understanding and rigorous proof has often been lacking. Over the last ten years, there have been many advances made in filling in the details and there will continue to be rapid advances in the future. This means that any article or book discussing this topic becomes out of date as soon as it is written. Nevertheless several recent references on these topics are recommended [85.1,2,3]. Atomic and molecular structure and spectroscopy, as well as collision processes involving atoms, molecules, ions and electrons, are important to the study of all planetary atmospheres. For additional information on this topic, see Chapt. 84 in this volume. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
