Cumberland Piedmont Network ozone and foliar injury report – Kings Mountain NMP, Mammoth Cave NP and Ninety Six NHS: Annual report 2013

Jernigan JW, Carson B, Leibfreid T. 2015. Cumberland Piedmont Network ozone and foliar injury report – Kings Mountain NMP, Mammoth Cave NP and Ninety Six NHS: Annual report 2013. Natural Resource Report. NPS/CUPN/NRR—2015/1044. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado

This is the Cumberland Piedmont Network’s (CUPN) sixth annual report on ozone concentration and associated foliar injury. Data were collected during 2013 at Kings Mountain National Military Park (KIMO), Mammoth Cave National Park (MACA) and Ninety Six National Historic Site (NISI). Ozone concentration/foliar injury data and associated analyses are presented for each of these three parks. All parks had generally low ozone concentrations that might be expected to produce minimal-to-no foliar injury. These low concentrations could explain why no ozone injury was found at any of these CUPN parks. Also included in this report are summary statistics for ozone data from off-park state-operated monitors located around KIMO, MACA, NISI and the remaining CUPN parks.
