Extractions: About the Speaker Dr. F. Sherwood Rowland , Donald Bren Research Professor of Chemistry, came to the University of California, Irvine, in 1964 as the first chair of the Department of Chemistry. He previously held faculty positions at Princeton University and the University of Kansas. He holds a bachelor's degree from Ohio Wesleyan University, a master's and a doctorate from The University of Chicago, and a number of honorary degrees from universities in the United States and the United Kingdom. Dr. Rowland is a specialist in atmospheric chemistry and radiochemistry, and was, with colleague Mario Molina, the first scientist to warn that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) released into the atmosphere were depleting the earth's critical ozone layer. Research on CFCs and stratospheric ozone eventually led in the 1970s to legislation in the United States, Canada and Scandinavia regulating the manufacture and use of chlorofluorocarbons, and in 1987 to the Montreal Protocol of the United Nations Environment Program, the first international agreement for controlling and ameliorating environmental damage to the global atmosphere. The terms of the Montreal Protocol were strengthened in 1992 to attain a complete phaseout of further CFC production by the year 1996.

Extractions: Open to the Public ABSTRACT: As the 21st Century begins, several important alterations in the chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere are well under way, with consequences which will be widely felt over the coming decades. Many of these can be grouped under three headings: depletion of stratospheric ozone, increased trapping of terrestrial infrared radiation with consequent warming of Earth's surface, and rising levels of surface pollution especially in urban environments. In all three instances, the major changes are occurring because of additional gases released to the atmosphere through the activities of the global population. F. Sherwood Rowland

Prof. Rowland got his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1952 working under Willard Libby (who also won the Nobel prize, in 1960 for C-14 dating). While at Chicago Rowland evinced a clear interest in many areas of kinetics, both inside and outside the lab. He played basketball and baseball for the University of Chicago's team and spent two summers with a semi-pro baseball team in Canada. When I was a graduate student in the 1980s, Rowland played with our intramural softball team. His speed around the bases might have slowed a bit since his days playing semi-pro ball, but he hit the ball so far, it never mattered!

Extractions: Nobel Prize Winning Chemists F. Sherwood Rowland The Nobel Prize In Chemistry 1995 F. Sherwood Rowland was born on June 28, 1927, the second of three sons, in the small central Ohio town of Delaware, the home of Ohio Wesleyan University. His accelerated academic schedule made him eligible for his final year of University in June 1945, as he approached his 18th. birthday. His coursework at Ohio Wesleyan emphasized science within a liberal arts curriculum, with more or less equal amounts of chemistry, physics and mathematics, and majors in all three fields. Willard F. Libby settled automatically and happily into his research group, and became a radiochemist working on the chemistry of radioactive atoms. His thesis concerned the chemical state of cyclotron-produced radioactive bromine atoms. The nuclear process not only creates a radioactive atom, but breaks it loose from all its chemical bonds. These highly energetic atoms exist only in very, very low concentration, but can subsequently be traced by their eventual radioactive decay. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1995 together with Paul J. Crutzen and Mario J. Molina "for their work in atmospheric chemistry, particularly concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone".

Questions were raised in 1971 about the possible effect of these high-flying aircraft on the Earth's ozone layer. The original research proposal was a one-page addition to my regular yearly renewal proposal for my research contract with the US Atomic Energy Commission. There I said that I would like to look at the fate of CFCs.

Hall, University of California Irvine, Irvine, California 92697 Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, March 13, 2002 A natural greenhouse effect has existed in Earth's atmosphere for thousands of years, warming the Earth's surface for a global average of 57° Fahrenheit. During the 20th Century, the atmospheric concentrations of a number of greenhouse gases have increased, mostly because of the actions of mankind. Our current concern is not whether there is a greenhouse effect, because there is one, but rather how large will be the enhanced greenhouse effect from the additional accumulation in the atmosphere of these greenhouse gases. The Earth intercepts daily energy from the sun, much of it in the visible wavelengths corresponding to the spectrum of colors from red to violet, and the rest in ultraviolet and nearby infrared wavelengths. An equal amount of energy must escape from the Earth daily to maintain a balance, but this energy emission is controlled by the much cooler average surface temperature of the Earth, and occurs in wavelengths in the Afar infrared. If all of this terrestrially emitted infrared radiation were able to escape directly to space, then the required average temperature of Earth would be 0E Fahrenheit. However, the greenhouse gasescarbon dioxide (CO ), methane (CH

Professor Paul Crutzen Professor Mario Molina Professor F. Sherwood Rowland The ozone layer - the Achilles heel of the biosphere The atmosphere surrounding the earth contains small quantities of ozone - a gas with molecules consisting of three oxygen atoms (O ). If all the ozone in the atmosphere were compressed to a pressure corresponding to that at the earth's surface, the layer would be only 3 mm thick. But even though ozone occurs in such small quantities, it plays an exceptionally fundamental part in life on earth. This is because ozone, together with ordinary molecular oxygen (O ), is able to absorb the major part of the sun's ultra-violet radiation and therefore prevent this dangerous radiation from reaching the surface. Without a protective ozone layer in the atmosphere, animals and plants could not exist, at least upon land. It is therefore of the greatest importance to understand the processes that regulate the atmosphere's ozone content.
