Effects of Acidic Deposition on Soil Invertebrates and Microorganisms

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology ((RECT,volume 148))

Abstract

The first observations of the detrimental effects of atmospheric pollution, including acidic deposition, on plants and other organisms were made in Europe more than 300 yr ago. However, scientific research into these effects did not begin until 1852, when Robert Smith, an English chemist, described the rain chemistry in the vicinity of Manchester, England. This study and other work that contributed to our understanding of the historical development of scientific knowledge and public concern over acidifying compounds in precipitation have been reviewed by Cowling (1982).
