Study of vegetation and environmental factors is considered as one of the important aspects in the management and conservation of natural ecosystems. This research investigates the effect of altitude from sea level (ASL) (in four classes: less than 1600 m, 1600-1800, 2000-1800 and more than 2000 m) and the direction of slope (in four main directions: north, south, east and west) on vegetative a...
متن کاملSetting Limits: Using Air Pollution Thresholds to Protect and Restore U.S. Ecosystems
SUMMARY M ore than four decades of research provide unequivocal evidence that sulfur, nitrogen, and mercury pollution have altered, and will continue to alter, our nation's lands and waters. The emission and deposition of air pollutants harm native plants and animals, degrade water quality, affect forest productivity, and are damaging to human health. Many air quality policies limit emissions a...
