Optimal acid rain abatement policy in Europe [PDF]

Acid rain causes greater environmental damage than would occur if countries act cooperatively. Based on new estimates of sulphur abatement cost functions, the potential gains from cooperation are calculated for Europe. Various cooperative abatement rates

Suppression of rice methane emission by sulfate deposition in simulated acid rain [PDF]

, 2008
Sulfate in acid rain is known to suppress methane (CH4) emissions from natural freshwater wetlands. Here we examine the possibility that CH4 emissions from rice agriculture may be similarly affected by acid rain, a major and increasing pollution problem ...

Biochar‐based fertilizers improve nutrient use efficiency in sunflower grown on a subtropical tidal soil

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Improving fertilizer use efficiency is essential for reducing environmental pollution, sustaining agricultural production, and maximizing the economic profitability of crop production systems. This study tested the hypothesis that the formulation strategy of biochar‐based fertilizers, rather than nutrient addition alone, is associated with ...

Biogas production from Opuntia stricta Haw.: microbial diversity and solid load influence on sludge recycle systems

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The search for alternative and sustainable energy sources becomes urgent as energy demand increases and fossil fuels become less available, especially in water‐scarce regions such as the Brazilian semi‐arid region, where current projections of global warming and the expansion of arid and semi‐arid zones point to a future of desertification ...

Evolution of concrete properties under bending and tensile load and acid rain combination

Case Studies in Construction Materials
To investigate the evolution of concrete performance under the combined action of acid rain erosion and flexural-tensile loading, this study employed an accelerated laboratory testing approach to examine changes in the appearance, mass, compressive ...

The influence of circadian variables on ecotoxicology metabolomics

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecotoxicologists are using metabolomics increasingly to gain insight into toxicological mechanisms and sublethal effects of chemical exposures. Metabolomics offers a sensitive multi‐parameter approach that can detect biochemical responses not obvious using apical and behavioural endpoints.

Chemical Changes in Leaves of Corn and Bean Plants Exposed to Simulated Acid Rain [PDF]

, 2012
In this study, the effects of simulated acid rain on vitamin E, vitamin D-2 and fatty acids levels of corn and bean leaves were investigated. It was determined that the level of palmitoleic acid (C16:1) increased in comparison with the control group (p ...

The Effect of Acid Rain on Strength and Corrosion Performance of Slurry Infiltrated Fiber Concrete

Zanco Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences, 2019
The acid rain has a serious effect on the durability of reinforced concrete, especially when the pH value of the acid rain decreased lower than a certain limit. The acid rain can cause erosion of concrete stone and corrosion of steel reinforcement.

Effects of simulated acid rain on leaf anatomy and micromorphology of Genipa americana L. (Rubiaceae)

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2006
Experiments were conducted in order to characterize the injuries on leaf structure and micromorphology of G. americana and evaluate the degree of susceptibility of this species to simulated acid rain.
