Sinks and environmental impacts for atmospheric carbon monoxide. O. Badr and S.D. Probert. Appl. Energy, 1995, 50(4), 339--372.

Current understanding of sinks for atmospheric carbon monoxide is discussed. Although the major sinks have been identified, estimates for their strength are still uncertain. Experimental data being available for only a few locations, and more measurements in representative regions world-wide are required in order to evaluate the CO global budget more accurately. Oxidation in the troposphere, transport to the stratosphere, uptake by soils, carbon monoxide and human health, and carbon monoxide contributions to global warming and ozone-layer depletion are discussed. A useful bibliography comprising 208 references is included.
