Abstract

In this article the authors describe present-day patterns of sulphur deposition, and identify areas of the UK that are currently susceptible to damage through acidification. The authors then forecast sulfur deposition in the year 2010, assuming that emissions have been reduced in accordance with the Second Sulphur Protocol. Finally, the effectiveness of the new protocol is assessed through a comparison of maps depicting present-day and future damage. -from Authors
