Responses of soil nutrients, enzyme activities, and soil microbial carbon metabolic activity of Cunninghamia lanceolata to acid rain stress and post-stress recovery dynamics [PDF]
BMC Ecology and EvolutionAcid rain pollution has historically been a serious issue in Southern China, where the dominant acid rain anion is SO4 2−. In recent decades, China has undertaken multiple measures to reduce acid deposition, leading to significant decreases in SO2 ...

Effects of simulated acid rain on rhizosphere microorganisms of invasive Alternanthera philoxeroides and native Alternanthera sessilis [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Acid rain not only has serious harm to the environment, but also has the same threat to plants, but the invasive plant Alternanthera philoxeroides still grows well compared to the native plant Alternanthera sessilis under acid rain stress.

The Impact of Acid Rain in Central China and Possible Solution [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2023 Acid rain, with a pH below 5.6, is a significant global environmental concern with detrimental effects on ecosystems and human activities. It is the result of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) reacting with water vapor, oxygen, and other ...
