Abstract

The phenomenon of acid deposition is one of the most important global problems, and has been the subject of extensive research in North America, Canada, and Scandinavian Countries for the past 40 years. Studies have also shown that acid deposition occurs in many other regions, including China, Japan, Israel, Arabia, Russia, South America and Turkey (Ahmed et al. [1], Singer et al. [11], Carmichael and Arndt [5], Gülsoy et al. [7]).
