Physical and Cognitive Performance of the Least Shrew (Cryptotis parva) on a Calcium-Restricted Diet

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences, 2012
Geological substrates and air pollution affect the availability of calcium to mammals in many habitats, including the Adirondack Mountain Region (Adirondacks) of the United States. Mammalian insectivores, such as shrews, may be particularly restricted in

Experiences with liming in European countries - results of long-term experiments

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2006
Liming was and still is carried out in many European forests since the beginning of the 1980s. Main objectives of compensation liming is to neutralize actual acidic deposition in order to prevent further soil acidification, to increase base saturation ...

Terrestrial acidification and ecosystem services: effects of acid rain on bunnies, baseball, and Christmas trees

open access: yesEcosphere, 2017
Often termed “acid rain,” combined nitrogen and sulfur deposition can directly and indirectly impact the condition and health of forest ecosystems. Researchers use critical loads (CLs) to describe response thresholds, and recent studies on acid‐sensitive

Effect of sulfuric acid concentration on the quality of copper microcolumns in localized electrochemical deposition

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2020
Localized electrochemical deposition (LECD) is a promising method for three-dimensional micro-/nanofabrication and, thus, the factors influencing LECD have been intensively investigated.

Estimation of Economic Loss from Acid Deposition Based on Damage Function

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2018
The destruction of materials exposed to atmospheric acid is an important part of the economic loss of acid deposition. In this paper, by analyzing the mechanism of material damage caused by acid deposition and referring to the damage function at home and

Modeling Acidification Recovery on Threatened Ecosystems: Application to the Evaluation of the Gothenburg Protocol in France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
To evaluate the acid deposition reduction negotiated for 2010 within the UNECE LRTAP Gothenburg Protocol, sulphur and nitrogen deposition time-series (1880–2100) were compared to critical loads of acidity on five French ecosystems: Massif Central basalt (

Nitrogen and sulfur deposition on regional and global scales : a multimodel evaluation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
[1] We use 23 atmospheric chemistry transport models to calculate current and future (2030) deposition of reactive nitrogen (NOy, NHx) and sulfate (SOx) to land and ocean surfaces.

Global soil acidification impacts on belowground processes

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
With continuous nitrogen (N) enrichment and sulfur (S) deposition, soil acidification has accelerated and become a global environmental issue. However, a full understanding of the general pattern of ecosystem belowground processes in response to soil ...
