Coordinating Editor Preface to Acidic Precipitation, Volume 5
(Advances in Environmental Science) Acidification research has been
ongoing for several decades. It was not until the 1980s, however,
that scientists began to recognize the complex ity of the factors
causing the decline in forest growth and deterioration of fish
populations in acidified lakes. The general feeling, based on
correla tive research, was that long-range transported air
pollution was the main cause. Proof, however, was difficult to
obtain because of complex interac tions of various stress factors
including natural ones."
