Effects of Acidic Deposition on Calcium Nutrition of Spruce/fir Forests in the Eastern U.S.: Implications for Physiological Processes, Growth, and Climate Interactions
1993
McLaughlin, S.B. (Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN (USA))
Calcium avaiability to forests has been shown to be reduced by acidic deposition in several ways including: increased leaching from foliage, increased leaching from soils, and decreased availability from poorly buffered soils when aluminium is mobilized. Studies documented that acidic deposition has altered the growth and vigour of red spruce during the past three decades by changing calcium availability.
