Book Sensitivity of the Eastern United States to Acid Precipitation Impacts on Surface Waters

Download or read book Sensitivity of the Eastern United States to Acid Precipitation Impacts on Surface Waters written by and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efforts to identify areas of the United States where soils and freshwaters might be sensitive to acidification have proceeded from analyses of large scale geologic maps. These are useful in a general way but a finer scale analysis has been needed. We have carried out such an analysis for the eastern United States based primarily on geologic maps of scales 1:250,000 to 1:500,000. This report is a synopsis of and excerpted from that effort. Other workers have prepared maps on a similar scale of the soils to a depth of 25 cm, and we anticipate that both sets of maps will be merged into a combined analysis of sensitivity. Other factors important in controlling acidification of soils and freshwaters include hydrologic charcteristics of the terrain, such as: soil porosity or permeability; water residence time in soil; temporal variation in precipitation rate, chemistry and volume; regional temperature patterns; and topography.

Book Acid Deposition  Environmental  Economic  and Policy Issues

Download or read book Acid Deposition Environmental Economic and Policy Issues written by Donald Adams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concern about acid deposition, commonly referred to as acid rain, as a widespread pollution problem with severe ecological consequences has heightened public awareness. Many authorities fear that acid deposition may be the worst environmental crisis of our industrialized society because of both the global implications and possible widespread, irreversible damage to lakes, soils, and forested ecosystems. Neither state nor international boundaries are exempt from the transport and deposition of airborne pollutants resulting from local and distant emission sources. The dilemma and debate will continue as long as society requires fossil fuels for its energy needs without regard to emission constraints. This book started as a modest attempt to provide a status report on atmospheric transport, the chemical processes which produce acidifying agents, and resultant ecological and economic consequences. The materials in this book have been substantially revised from those presented at the conference in 1983. It became obvious that additional chapters were required when sudden and profound changes occurring in European forests were reported. It is felt that perhaps such damages could be an early warning to forested ecosystems in the northeastern United States and Canada as well as other places throughout the world. Most importantly, it is essential that gained scientific knowledge be translated into required legislation - a section on Policy Issues was incorporated to address these concerns. It is hoped that the reader will become informed and concerned enough to be involved in ll this IIglobal debate. Donald D. Adams Halter P.
