Most importantly, they have in this way showed how sensitive the ozone layer is to the influence of anthropogenic emissions of certain compounds. The thin ozone layer has proved to be an Achilles heel that may be seriously injured by apparently moderate changes in the composition of the atmosphere." In 1970, Dr. Paul Crutzen "...showed that the nitrogen oxides NO and NO

Extractions: NOBEL PRIZE TO OZONE RESEARCHERS Professor Paul Crutzen Professor Mario Molina Professor F. Sherwood Rowland By Sean Henahan, Access Excellence STOCKHOLM, Sweden- Three noted chemistry researchers have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for atmospheric studies which led to an understanding of how the ozone layer forms and decomposes. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences praised the researchers' contribution "to our salvation from a global environmental problem that could have catastrophic consequences." The one million dollar prize will be shared by F. Sherwood Rowland, Bren Professor of Chemistry, UC Irvine; Mario Molina, who currently is a member of the Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences at Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Paul Crutzen, a professor at Max-Planck Institute for Chemistry in Germany and adjunct professor at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. The award culminates 20 years of study on the ozone layer by the researchers. The three winners of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry are the first ever to receive the award for atmospheric chemistry or environmental science. Although the layer of ozone in the (8 to 12 miles)is relatively thin, it is crucial to life on earth because it absorbs the majority of the sun's ultraviolet radiation before it reaches the earth. The earth's stratospherethe region 12 to 20 kilometers highearth contains small quantities of ozone a gas with molecules consisting of three oxygen atoms. Ozone (O3) is formed when ordinary oxygen molecules (O2) are split by ultraviolet radiation and then recombine with other oxygen molecules. 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.

Extractions: Professor of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences Mario J. Molina will share this year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in atmospheric chemistry concerning the formation and decomposition of ozone. The Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm, Sweden awarded the million-dollar prize on Wednesday morning to Molina, F. Sherwood Rowland of the University of California at Irvine, and Paul Crutzen, a scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, Germany. Molina, Rowland, and Crutzen showed that the use of common items like spray cans and air conditioners can harm the fragile ozone layer that protects the world from the dangerous ultra-violet radiation of the sun. This is the first time that the Swedish Academy has awarded a Nobel Prize for research into the impact of man-made objects on the environment. The discoveries led to an international environmental treaty, which, by the end of this year, bans the production of industrial chemicals that reduce the ozone layer. "It's very rewarding to see how one can simultaneously try to work with problems that affect society in a very direct way," Molina said.

Extractions: Professor Yuan-Tseh Lee received his B.S. degree from the National Taiwan University in 1959. After finishing, his M.S. degree at TsingHua University, he pursued his Ph.D. thesis research at the University of California at Berkeley, followed by postdoctoral work as a Research Fellow with Dudley Herschbach at Harvard. After being appointed assistant professor at the University of Chicago in 1968, he rapidly made his laboratory the North American capital of molecular beam studies. Professor Lee returned to Berkeley as a full professor in 1974 and significantly expanded his research to include, in addition to crossed molecular beams, studies of reaction dynamics, investigations of various primary photochemical processes, and the spectroscopy of ionic and molecular clusters. In 1994, he retired from his position of University Professor and Principal Investigator for the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory at the University of California at Berkeley and assumed the position of the President of Academia Sinica, Taiwan. His molecular beam work is seen as providing the experimental underpinning of much of our understanding of the dynamics of chemical reactions.

Extractions: Nobel Laureate who discovered a cause of ozone depletion will lecture at Vassar College, November 21 F. Sherwood Rowland, the first scientist to warn that the manufacturing of household products was a potent cause of atmospheric ozone depletion, will give a lecture on the atmosphere's current state at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, November 21, in Blodgett Auditorium at Vassar College. Rowland will be introduced by his colleague Gene Likens, director of the Institute of Ecosystem Studies in Millbrook and this year's recipient of the National Medal of Science. The event, which is free and open to the public, is sponsored jointly by the Vassar College Environmental Studies Program, the Vassar College Environmental Sciences Program, the Vassar Chapter of Sigma Xi, and by the Institute of Ecosystem Studies. Rowland is the current foreign secretary of the National Academy of Sciences. "The 21st Century Atmosphere: Changes and Consequences" is the title of his lecture, which will address three major concerns: the depletion of stratospheric ozone, the Earth's increased warming caused by trapped infrared radiation, and rising population levels. In 1995 Rowland was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his atmospheric research that recognized the underlying science behind ozone depletion. With colleague Mario Molina, Rowland discovered the causal effects that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) -used in the manufacture of aerosol sprays, packing materials, and refrigerants - have on earth's critical ozone layer.

Extractions: Dear Colleagues: Welcome to UCI. It is my pleasure to introduce you to a campus of great achievements. In its short history UCI has emerged as a major research university with many innovative academic programs. As part of the largest public university system acclaimed throughout the world for its teaching, research, and public service excellence, UCI is that rarely found mixture of youth and experience, wisdom and innovation. Those qualities are serving us well as we head into a new century and a new era of achievement for UCI. In 1994 we set the goal to be ranked among the top 50 universities in the country by the year 2000. To my great pleasure, 20 of our 24 ranked Ph.D. programs placed well within the top 50. And the 1995 awarding of two Nobel Prizes to founding faculty members in Physics and Chemistry has never before happened at a public university. These achievements have propelled us inexorably toward the top 30. The reason is clear. This campus has managed to achieve a remarkable excellence among our scientific, humanistic, and cultural treasures. Virtually every school is distinguished for its faculty and its achievements. How have we arrived at such an enviable position for a campus barely three decades old? It stems from the foresight of UCI's founders. They recruited talented young faculty who advanced the educational goals of this growing university. In so doing, our faculty have become national leaders by shaping new ideas and revolutionizing our knowledge of the world. Following this tradition, we continue to recruit young promising faculty who complement the wisdom and experience of our prominent researchers and teachers.
