Indirect effects and the Long-term Risks of Air Pollution on Tolerant Hardwood Forest Ecosystems in Central Canada
1993
Morrison, I.K. (Forestry Canada Ontario Region, Sault Ste. Marie (Canada))
There is a strong evidence to indicate that sulphates and nitrogen oxides cause increased leaching of base cations, principally calcium and magnesium from soils supporting old-growth sugar maple forest in central Canada. Sugar maple trees sequester Ca, especially in bark. A site low in exchangeable bases might become less productive, if subjected to prolonged high rates of leaching and full tree harvesting.

Hall, J.P. (Forestry Canada, Ottawa (Canada))
Climate change will be the major impact on all forests, included increased risk of large-scale fires, enhanced susceptibility to insects and diseases. Direct effects of air pollution on vegetation include damage to protective surface structures, disturbance of photosynthesis.
