Acidity of Twelve Northern New England (U.S.A.) Lakes in Recent Centuries
Davis RB, Anderson DS, Norton SA, Whiting MC. 1994. Acidity of Twelve Northern New England (U.S.A.) Lakes in Recent Centuries. Journal of Paleolimnology. 12:103-154
'In this paper we reconstruct and attempt to explain changes of pH and total alkalinity (abbr. alk [= ANC]) over the past two to four centuries in 12 lakes in northern New England.' Sediment cores from 12 acidic lakes (none on Mount Desert Island) in northern New England were studied to assess acidity and alkalinity. Ponds on Mount Desert Island and elsewhere were for calibration in this study. /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /MOUNT DESERT ISLAND/
