8 de dic. de 2020 · Acid rain and acidification research are indeed a multidisciplinary field. This field evolved from the first attempts to mitigate acid freshwater in the 1920s, then linking acid rain to the acidification in late 1950s, to the broad project-concepts on cause and effect from the late 1960s.

21 de sept. de 2019 · Monitoring, modelling, and data collection. Monitoring of atmospheric concentrations, deposition, and ecosystem effects has been a key for understanding the causes, impact, and trends in acid rain, both in Europe and North America and later in other geographic areas (Table 2).
8 de dic. de 2020 · The major contributors to acid rain are emissions of sulfur and nitrogen oxides from the combustion of fossil fuels, primarily coal, and oil, which are converted into strong acids (sulfuric and nitric) in the atmosphere.
5 de abr. de 2024 · The Acid Rain Program (ARP) has delivered significant reductions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants, extensive environmental and human health benefits, and far lower-than-expected costs.
21 de sept. de 2019 · Because of its serious large-scale effects on ecosystems and its transboundary nature, acid rain received for a few decades at the end of the last century wide scientific and public interest,...
18 de ago. de 2020 · In taking part in the national effort to combat acid rain, EPA scientists helped usher in a new chapter of environmental science. Acid rain forms mainly through reactions with the chemicals sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide found in fossil fuel emissions.
