Editorial Review

Product Description
This text addresses two main questions: how can we explain the fact that governments take different positions on common problems?; and why do some states push for international regulation whilst others hold back? It also explores the variance in implementation and compliance with international agreements. The book reports findings and observations from a major study focusing on the efforts to establish international regulations to cope with the problem known as "acid rain". It offers in-depth case studies of ten European countries as well as a comparative analysis searching for patterns and conclusions. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Acid rain is rain or any other form of precipitation which is unusually acidic. It has harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and buildings. Acid rain is mostly caused by human emissions of sulphur and nitrogen compounds which react in the atmosphere to produce acids. In recent years, many governments have introduced laws to reduce these emissions. This book examines new research results from around the world. ... Read more


24. The Acid Rain Controversy (Pitt Series in Policy and Institutional Studies)

Editorial Review

Product Description

This study describes the origins of acid rain, how it is formed, the ecological and human effects, and prevention methods. It also examines debates within the scientific community as a basis for evaluating policy decisions. A comprehensive review of pollution control techniques questions which technologies are currently available, their future availability, or whether they are merely theoretical. The authors frame the economic and political context for making decisions about acid rain control policy and offer valuable insights about the underlying dynamics of the environmental policymaking process for the near future.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Acid rain is a serious international environmental problem. Scandinavian forests have suffered especially severe damage, and have been the focus of considerable research on the causes and impacts of atmospheric pollution. This book presents the results of long-term studies on acid rain in Norwegian forests. This research examined soil chemistry and biology; the impacts of acid rain on tree growth and nutrition; and its influence on ground vegetation, fungi, and seedling germination and development. Long-Term Experiments with Acid Rain in Norwegian Forest Ecosystems is a lasting contribution to the literature on acid precipitation, and will be of interest to researchers in ecology, air pollution, forestry and environmental chemistry. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
The book is divided into two parts: the first concentrates on identifying the problem, with special attention to the effects of acid rain on forests and at high altitudes, while the second section deals with the policy and legal aspects of the situation. This volume demonstrates that the acid rain problem represents a grave ecological and health risk for which remedies are urgently required.
The eleven chapters, contributed by scientists, environmentalists, environmental consultants and research workers, focus on the current and serious problem of acid rain, detailing the incidence and effects as well as certain remedies. The roles of vehicles and power stations are examined in detail and legal aspects of curbing the acid rain phenomenon are considered. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Environment and Technology in the Former USSR makes amajor contribution to the literature, providing new perspectives onpower engineering, power generation and associated environmentalissues of atmospheric pollution in the former Soviet Union. Itconsiders the consequences of acid rain emissions for neighboringcountries and the technological and commercial factors which influencethese levels of pollution. The book begins by providing a contextualand technical background on the capacities, ages, scale of atmosphericpollution and fuel mix of the power generation industry in the formerUSSR. After establishing the industrial and technical facts using awide range of Western and Russian literature and placing these in aninternational context, the author explores possible policy solutionsfor reducing acid rain emissions and improving power generationefficiency. The main policy prescription considered is the use oftechnology transfer from the West to the former Soviet Union. Usingcase study research, the author evaluates the volume and rate oftechnology transfer, and the current stage of those engaged in, orpotential recipients of, Western power engineering technologies. Theanalysis then extends to consider the political, economic andcommercial factors affecting these levels of technological diffusionand future technological developments in the industry.This book willbe of special interest to government officials, internationalagencies, academics and technical and commercial personnel withbusiness interests in Russia. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
The causes and consequences of acid rain are subjects of widespread concern and controversy.However the effects of acid deposition on the chemistry of lakes and streams, and on the survival of fish and other aquatic life, have been greatly clarified by the results of a recent Anglo-Scandinavian surface waters research program.This book presents a concise, nonspecialist account of the results and their implications by the director of the program. Based on studies conducted throughout the United Kingdom and northern Europe, the book includes chapters on emissions, transport, and deposition of acid pollution; hydrochemical studies in catchments; catchment process studies; catchment manipulation experiments; the role of hydrology and soil chemistry; palaeolimnological studies; the toxic effects of acidification on fish and other aquatic life; and catchment modelling studies. The highly interdisciplinary nature of the research should appeal to a wide range of scientists and to policy-makers interested in acid rain and its consequences. It is also aimed at postgraduates and third-year undergraduate students in the environmental sciences. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description

Thirteen pieces of federal legislation that require sulfur emission reductions by power plants and other coal-burning fa­cilities are currently pending.

 

This book is drawn from the first con­ference to address the issue of what the costs of compliance with this legislation will be, with a special emphasis on the Midwest region. A major coal-producing area, the Midwest economy will suffer significantly in terms of goods and ser­vices produced with electricity and in jobs lost.

 

The participants represent utility, coal, and transportation industries, as well as academia, environmentalists, state and federal regulatory agencies, and the United Mine Workers of America. The critical issues they address include eco­nomic modeling and forecasting the re­sults of acid rain legislation, the effects on transportation, air pollution control and the environment, state and federal regulations, and a search for solutions.
