Interpreting data and information concerning air pollutant effects on natural resources is difficult due to the many interacting biotic and abiotic factors, the diversity of information on this subject, and the paucity of on-site experts. In response to this data management need, the National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Penn State University have produced a computerized, Windows-based air quality information management system (AQUIMS). The prototype provides information on the effects of two pollutants, tropospheric ozone and acidic deposition. AQUIMS provides the user with general site information, site-specific pollution monitoring data, information on natural resources sensitive to air pollution, annotated bibliographies, slide libraries of pristine and affected resources, pertinent databases, and an embedded expert system that helps the user assess the potential effects of air pollution. AQUIMS allows resource managers, policy experts, and air pollution researchers to access information faster and better analyze pollution effects.
