ABSTRACT

Industrialized regions of the world have been confronted with the consequences of acidic deposition since the beginning of the 20th century. Today, there is substantial concern about the environmental impacts of air pollution on the local, regional, and global scale [1]. It has been shown that observed levels of various air pollutants can threaten human health, vegetation, wildlife, and soil biology; cause damage to materials; and change the chemistry of soils and waters.
