Description:
This report is the second in a series of annual summaries of research on the deposition of airborne chemicals to forest canopies and the forest floor in eastern North America. The report is based on observations and model estimates of atmospheric deposition at high elevation sites in the eastern United States. The report is produced by the scientists in the Mountain Cloud Chemistry Program.One of the major objectives of this research is to characterize regional (mainly longitudinal) and elevational variability in the amounts of airborne chemicals transferred from the atmosphere into the spruce-fir and other forest ecosystems that cover high elevation sites in the Appalachian Mountains of the eastern part of North America. The reports in this series constitute the principal linkage between the Mountain Cloud Chemistry Program (MCCP) and the Eastern Spruce Fir Research Cooperative (ESFC) of the Forest Response Program of NAPAP.
