    Description / Table of Contents: Der Autor ist Professor für Geowissenschaften in London. Das Hauptthema dieses Buches sind die zu erwartenden Klimaveränderungen auf der Erde. Das komplizierte und vielschichtige Thema wird sehr gut, geschickt, faktenreich und kompetent behandelt, gut verständlich und lesbar. Andere Themen sind Land- und Forstwirtschaft, Bevölkerungspolitik, Entwicklungspolitik, Weltwirtschaft. Dabei kommt der Autor zwangsläufig immer mehr von den Tatsachen zur Politik. Auch hier bemüht er sich immer um einen kompetenten, umfassenden, vernünftigen, gerechten und zukunftweisenden Überblick. Dennoch ist zu merken, daß der Autor sich nicht immer auf seinem eigentlichen Fachgebiet befindet, doch lesens- und bedenkenswert sind auch diese Abschnitte. (2) (Klaus Bock)

Atmospheric Environment, 147, 98-108, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2016.09.058

    Description: Measurements of the stable isotopic composition (dD(H2) or dD) of atmospheric molecular hydrogen (H2) are a useful addition to mixing ratio (X(H2)) measurements for understanding the atmospheric H2 cycle. dD datasets published so far consist mostly of observations at background locations. We complement these with observations from the Cabauw tall tower at the CESAR site, situated in a densely populated region of the Netherlands. Our measurements show a large anthropogenic influence on the local H2 cycle, with frequently occurring pollution events that are characterized by X(H2) values that reach up to 1 ppm and low dD values. An isotopic source signature analysis yields an apparent source signature below -400 per mil, which is much more D-depleted than the fossil fuel combustion source signature commonly used in H2 budget studies. Two diurnal cycles that were sampled at a suburban site near London also show a more D-depleted source signature (-340 per mil), though not as extremely depleted as at Cabauw. The source signature of the Northwest European vehicle fleet may have shifted to somewhat lower values due to changes in vehicle technology and driving conditions. Even so, the surprisingly depleted apparent source signature at Cabauw requires additional explanation; microbial H2 production seems the most likely cause. The Cabauw tower site also allowed us to sample vertical profiles. We found no decrease in (H2) at lower sampling levels (20 and 60m) with respect to higher sampling levels (120 and 200m). There was a significant shift to lower median dD values at the lower levels. This confirms the limited role of soil uptake around Cabauw, and again points to microbial H2 production during an extended growing season, as well as to possible differences in average fossil fuel combustion source signature between the different footprint areas of the sampling levels. So, although knowledge of the background cycle of H2 has improved over the last decade, surprising features come to light when a non-background location is studied, revealing remaining gaps in our understanding.

    Notes: [Auszug] SOME of the strongest words in the Bible are reserved for those who mislead humanity by speaking falsehood and claiming that it is truth. These false shepherds - St Jude calls them clouds without rain - are those who by perverting the truth manage to lead the faithful astray. One of the most ...

    Notes: [Auszug] WHEN the leaders of seven Western nations meet next week in Toronto (19-21 June), they will be largely concerned with planning economic growth. But the scale of the global economy is now so great that they will implicitly also be planning the future of the Earth's atmosphere and of our climate. ...
