Description: Critical Loads and Dynamic Risk Assessments : Nitrogen, Acidity and Metals in Terrestrial and Aquatic Ecosystems, Hardcover by De Vries, Wim (EDT); Hettelingh, Jean-paul (EDT); Posch, Maximilian (EDT), ISBN 940179507X, ISBN-13 9789401795074, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This book provides a unique overview of research methods over the past 25 years assessing critical loads and temporal effects of the deposition of air pollutants. It includes critical load methods and applications addressing acidification, eutrophication and heavy metal pollution of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Applications include examples for each air pollution threat, both at local and regional scale, including Europe, Asia, Canada and the US. Th starts with background information on the effects of the deposition of sulphur, nitrogen and heavy metals and geochemical and biological indicators for risk assessments. The use of those indicators is then illustrated in the assessment of critical loads and their exceedances and in the temporal assessment of air pollution risks. It also includes the most recent developments of assessing critical loads and current and future risks of soil and water chemistry and biodiversity under climate change, with a special focus on nitrogen. Th thus provides a complete overview of the knowledge that is currently used for the scientific support of policies in the field of air pollution control to protect ecosystem services.
