In the north-eastern part of Estonia, near the city of Narva, there are two big oil-shale fueled Power Plants, the Baltic PP and Estonian PP. The main atmospheric pollutants resulting from the burning of oil-shale are fly ash, sulphur oxides and nitrogen oxides. The concentrations of Ca and Cu were measured in the stem wood of Scots pine on 4 sites in the sphere of influence of the Narva Power Plants. The stands selected for investigation were similar as to their edaphic conditions and forest survey indicators (70-80-year-old (Oxalis-) Myrtillus-type pine stands of 0.7-0.8 density and II quality class with moderately dense or sparse understorey). Using the annual rings, these core samples were divided into 5-yr sections (1945-1949; 1950-1954 etc.). The content of Ca increased and the content of Cu decreased from the youngest, outermost annual rings to the center of the stem
