Air pollution has been recognized as a potential problem for
forests for nearly 150 years. Today, sulphur dioxide, fluorides,
heavy metals and ozone are a significant problem, usually from
large scale sources in industrial and urban areas. Problems are
exacerbated in those regions where there is a poor understanding of
the factors involved in forest decline and destruction and no
rigorous control over it has been established. This book is the
first report from the International Union of Forest Research
Organization 's (IUFRO) Task Force on Environmental Change and
provides an assessment of the extent of air pollution impacts on
forests in heavily polluted regions. It includes case studies from
Russia, Ontario (Canada), California and the Mediterranean region.
It is also the first volume in a new book series covering many
areas of forestry research, published by CABI Publishing in
association with IUFRO.
