Effect of simulated acid rain on the growth of soybean
Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1989Soybean seedlings (Glycine max) grown in a glasshouse were exposed to simulated acid rain using a solution of deionized water containing sulfate, nitrate and chloride in concentrations and proportions equivalent to those in ambient rain water. Plants were subjected to acid rain treatment twice a week during the growing season, for a 1 hr period at a ...

Bronze Protection in Simulated Acid Rain
2008Bronzes have been widely used to produce sculptures and other objects of art. Very often they are exposed to corrosive action of polluted atmosphere. Acid rain that forms due to the presence of polluting gases may cause extensive damage on the bronze objects.

Effect of Simulated Acid Rain on Deterioration of Concrete
Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 2001In the study the long-term exposure tests to simulated acid rain were performed in order to clarify the effect of acid rain on deterioration of concrete. Mortar specimens with 40 mm in width, 15 mm in thickness and 160 mm in length were used for the tests.

Effects of Simulated Acid Rain on Asian Trees
2017We summarized the results obtained from experimental studies on the growth and physiological responses of Japanese and Chinese tree species to simulated acid rain, mist, or fog. Based on the studies conducted in Japan and China, exposure to simulated acid rain, mist, or fog at pH 4.0 or above for one to three growing seasons did not induce any adverse ...

Effect of simulated acid rain on the yield of soybean
Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1989Soybean seedlings (Glycine max) were exposed to simulated acid rain containing sulfate ion only or a mixture of sulfate, nitrate and chloride anions, using a continuous rain generating system in a side opened glasshouse. Plants were subjected to acid rain treatment twice a week, for a 1 or 3 hr period at a rate of 2.2 or 5.0 mm hr−1, respectively.

Computer Simulation of Soil Sensitivity to Acid Rain
Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1988Abstract A two‐horizon (A and B) simulation model was used to determine the sensitivity of Pennsylvania soils to acid deposition. The model simulated changes in the soild phase of soils in humid, temperate climates undergoing acidification and cation leaching. The Pennsylvania State Univ.

A Simulation of the Interaction of Acid Rain with Soil Minerals
Journal of Chemical Education, 2004The environmental issue of acid rain is incorporated into a five-part laboratory project that employs quantitative analytical laboratory techniques, such as acid–base titrations and gravimetric analysis of aqueous cations. The student observes the effectiveness of soil at consuming excess acidity in rainwater and observes the mobilization of Al3+ and ...

Impacts of simulated acid rain on recalcitrance of two different soils
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2012Laboratory experiments were conducted to estimate the impacts of simulated acid rain (SAR) on recalcitrance in a Plinthudult and a Paleudalfs soil in south China, which were a variable and a permanent charge soil, respectively. Simulated acid rains were prepared at pH 2.0, 3.5, 5.0, and 6.0, by additions of different volumes of H2SO4 plus HNO3 at a ...

Simulated acid rain effects on acidification of a Lexington silt loam
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution, 1986Intact soil cores were collected to a depth of 15 cm from a Lexington silt loam. Simulated precipitation with adjusted pH values of 3.7, 4.7 and 5.7 (control), was applied to the cores in increments of 500 mL day until totals which approximated 10, 20, 40, and 80 yr of effective rainfall in Louisiana were reached.

Simulated acid rain affects birch leaf endophyte populations
Microbial Ecology, 1993Endophytes were frequently isolated from mountain birch (Betula pubescens var. tortuosa (Ledeb.) Nyman) leaves at a subarctic site where natural air pollution is low. We tested whether simulated acid rain had any influence on the occurrence of endophytes.
