Acid Rain 5
This report involves a well description on acid rain as well as a focus on acid rain in eastern Canada. This report contains a very helpful basic background on acid rain as well as a questionnaire. It involves an annual report on the Federal-Provincial Agreements, sulphur dioxide emissions in the seven most eastern provinces, trends in acid deposition in the Atlantic provinces from 1980-1994, as well as acid precipitation in Kejimkujik, Nova Scotia. It also includes data tables, graphs and interesting facts concerning acid rain.This report is on acid rain and identifies the harmful effect it has on almost everything such as aquatic ecosystems, forests, farming, and even human health. It shows the sulphur dioxide emissions in the seven most eastern provinces along with their limits and how much sulphur dioxide they emitted in 1980, 1990, 1994, 1995, and 1996. It also contains sulphur emissions from major sources from four Canadian provinces as well as sulphur dioxide emissions from electric power generators in three Canadian provinces. There are also some interesting questions and answers and facts are included also. This information was organized from various websites. It also contains infor
At Kejimkujik National Park in southeastern Nova Scotia the average precipitation- weighed pH for 1992 was 4.57, which was equal to the average pH over the 13 years of record (1980-1992). The most acidic event of the year with a pH of 3.04 was 269 times more acidic than the least acidic event with a pH of 5.47. If we continue to ignore acid rain as a series problem and do nothing about it, as a result more fish well die, more trees will die, water will become contaminated, it will affect animal life, as well as human health.
