Impact of Air Pollutants on Southern Pine Forests (Ecological Studies)

This book summarizes a five-year research program on the impact of air pollution on southern commercial forests. Topics covered include: the condition of southern commercial forests, abiotic and biotic stress factors on southern pine forests, growth and physiological effects of regional air pollutants on southern pines, and impacts of atmospheric deposition and ozone on southern commercial pines. The book will be of interest to scientists working on the effects of air pollution on trees, as well as environmentalists, policymakers, and resource managers.
