Evaluation of the sensitivity of inventory and monitoring national parks to acidification effects from atmospheric sulfur and nitrogen deposition: main report

Sullivan TJ, McDonnell TC, McPherson GT, Mackey SD, Moore D. 2011. Evaluation of the sensitivity of inventory and monitoring national parks to acidification effects from atmospheric sulfur and nitrogen deposition: main report. Natural Resource Report. NPS/NRPC/ARD/NRR—2011/349. National Park Service, Natural Resource Program Center. Denver, Colorado

This document contains the main report of an assessment of potential acidification effects caused by atmospheric nitrogen and sulfur deposition in inventory and monitoring networks of the National Park Service. The main report is part of a report series that evaluates the relative sensitivity of NPS parks and inventory & monitoring networks to potential acidification effects caused by atmospheric nitrogen (nitrate and ammonium) and sulfur (sulfate) deposition. In terrestrial ecosystems, acidification depletes soil nutrients and mobilizes aluminum, affecting plant health and growth. In lakes and streams, acidification harms fish, amphibians, and aquatic insects. The reports provide a relative risk assessment of acidification impacts from atmospheric nitrogen and sulfur deposition for 270 parks in 32 inventory & monitoring networks. For network specific reports, see the report series reference: https://irma.nps.gov/DataStore/Reference/Profile/2170560
