The problern of "acid precipitation" has been recognized with
growing concern in many industrialized countries. The incorporation
of pollutants into cloud and rain elements and their transfer to
the ground by "wet deposition" are dominant mechanisms leading to a
self~cleansing of the tro- posphere but, on the other hand, to
hazards to the soil, vegetation and forests. The influence of
orographic and meteorological parameters and of the regional
distribution of precipitation on the deposition of pollutants are
insuffi- ciently known factors. During previous years, several
projects and analyses have been initiated to improve our knowledge
on the dry and wet deposition of pollutants and on the mechanisms
of transport of gaseaus and particulate components from the
atmosphere to the ground. Research activities have been supported
in different fields and it appeared not only useful but necessary
to bring the different research-groups tagether to endorse the
communication and cooperation between scientists in the related
fields. A symposiumwas arranged in Oberurself Taunus in November
1981 to discuss the results of experimen- tal and theoretical work
in the field of deposition and to gain a better understanding of
each other's methods, experience and Observations. The proceedings
presented in this volume permit a fair sur- vey of the present-day
knowledge and will be a useful tool for all working in this field.
The meeting would not have been possible without the finan- cial
support of the German Environmental Agency {Umwelt- bundesamt) .
