| Abstract
|
:
|
"While no longer a daily news item, acidic deposition is still a frequent issue for environmental managers and policy makers. Emissions of sulfur and nitrogen from power plants, industrial facilities, and motor vehicles - major causes of acidic deposition - still pour into the atmosphere on a daily basis. Aquatic Effects of Acidic Deposition summarizes and synthesizes major advancements in scientific research, highlighting topics directly relevant to policy making."--Jacket
