Photo-oxidants, Acidification and Tools: Policy Applications of EUROTRAC Results The Report of the EUROTRAC Application Project

The major environmental concerns in the troposphere are the increasing burden of photo-oxidants on all scales, the acidification of soil and water, and the atmospheric contribution to nutrient inputs to ecosystems. This book assimilates the many scientific results from the EUROTRAC project about the...
