Changes in poultry litter toxicity with simulated acid rain
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1991The Delmarva Peninsula on the Eastern Shore of Maryland ranks 4th in the nation in poultry production and generates 9,500 metric tons of poultry manure/litter per day. The poultry litter contains many macro and micro nutrients and is an excellent source of fertilizer. The litter also contains antibiotics, heavy metals, hormones and many microorganisms.

Freeze-thaw resistance of recycled aggregate concrete damaged by simulated acid rain
, 2021Acid rain severely decreases the durability of ordinary concrete structures; however, the effect of acid rain on recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) remains unclear. To fill this gap, this study investigated the freeze-thaw resistance of RAC in response to

Response of Soybeans to Simulated Acid Rain in the Field
Journal of Environmental Quality, 1983AbstractSoybeans [Glycine max (L.) Merr, ‘Davis’] were grown in the field during 1979 and 1980 to determine whether the acidity of simulated rainfall would affect plant injury, growth, or yield, soil chemistry, soil nematode populations, and Rhizobium nodulation of roots. Plants were exposed twice weekly to 0.74 cm (1979) or 0.85 cm (1980) of simulated

Responses of photosynthesis and antioxidants to simulated acid rain in mulberry seedlings
Physiologia Plantarum, 2021AbstractAcid rain, which has negative impacts on the vegetation of ecological systems, is widespread in Northern and Southern China. However, relatively little is known about the effects of acid rain on the growth and yield of economically important tree species in China.

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 ...

Response of Andropogon gerardii to Simulated Acid Rain
Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science (1903-), 1990In this study the authors examined the effects that moderate exposure to acidic precipitation had on growth and physiological responses in Andropogon gerardii, the dominant grass in tallgrass prairie. Naturally occurring monocultures of A. gerardii were treated with simulated acid rain (pH 4.0 or 3.0) or precipitation with a pH similar to natural ...

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.

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.

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.

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 ...
