| Abstract |
The purpose of this project was to search for and identify any trends in water chemistry and fish communities in Pennsylvania waters which would indicate that acid precipitation was affecting them adversely. No new data collection was to be included. Five existing data bases, including original data collected by the authors, were examined for the existence of water analyses from the same or nearby locations separated by at least one year. (Analyses involving known or suspected influence of acid mine drainage were omitted.) Of a total of 983 analysis reports which were usable, there were 314 cases with two or more such points. Of these 107 or 34% showed a decrease in pH, alkalinity, or both. Many of these decreases are to pH levels considered marginal for growth and reproduction of trout and other fishes. Seventy-one of the 107 analyses showing decreased pH or alkalinity included fish collection data. In 40 of these cases (58%), the number of fish species present decreased as well. |
