Description:
The Forest Response Program (FRP) is a major research undertaking. t is fortunate to have the support of many of the nation's top scientists. he involvement of the Forest Service, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the broader scientific community gives the program a unique blend of perspectives and talents that is imperative to achieve the program's goal. entral challenge is to integrate results from fundamentally different kinds of research. lthough the FRP will no longer exist in its present form after 1990, both the Forest Service and the Environmental Protection Agency are intent on continuing active acid rain research programs and expanding into important new areas. wo emerging issues are the effects of global climate change and of increased ultraviolet radiation resulting from stratospheric ozone depletion. he groundwork has been laid for close coordination of future research.
