Effects of air pollution on forests. Manuscript report No. MR2-86

Abstract

This paper reviews existing literature searching for possible causes of major forest declines, with a focus on the potential involvement of air pollutants including gaseous pollutants, acid deposition, heavy metals and organic compounds. The response of forests to various pollutants, ozone, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, acid deposition, heavy metals and pollutant mixtures, is discussed and hypotheses of pollutant-related forest declines are developed.
