Abstract

The final report on acidification as result of the second phase of the Dutch Priority Programme on Acidification was recently presented. In this report it is concluded that the deposition of acidifying components in the Netherlands has decreased in the years between 1980 and 1989. This is caused by emission-reductions in The Netherlands and foreign countries. The contribution of NH{sub y} (=NH{sub 3} + NH{sub 4}{sup +}) to the acid deposition has remarkably increased (50%), because of an adjusted deposition velocity compared to the first phase of the Dutch Priority Programme on Acidification. The increased nitrogen deposition leads to nitrogen saturation in the environment. An overload of nitrogen, which occurs in some areas, has consequences for plants. This will finally lead to damages because of secondary effects on plants like frost, drought, and diseases. Deposition scenarios used in the DAS-model are described. 3 figs., 4 tabs., 2 refs.
