Effects of acid precipitation on forest soils and watershed biogeochemistry in New England. A technical progress report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6784333
The research described was initiated to address the need for improved understanding of the mechanistic linkages between forest growth and acidic depositing. A long-term whole-system investigation of forest responses to acidic deposition has been initiated. Nutrient depletion and availability in forest soils, plant nutrient status, trace metal cycling and toxicity, plant disease resistance, and overall plant productivity is emphasized. 48 references, 4 figures, 7 tables.
