Bulk deposition of ions in the Turkey Lakes watershed / R.G. Semkin and Dean S. Jeffries.: En13-5/85-67E-PDF

"Implications of the level of atmospheric deposition of airborne pollutants at the Turkey Lakes Watershed (TLW) must be taken in context to the objectives of the larger NWRI mass balance study at this site, e.g., to define to the process of basin acidification. These results show that the sparsely located sampling stations of the national air and precipitation monitoring network may substantially under-estimate the amount of atmospheric deposition occurring at a given location; the discrepancy arises from the influence of specific local factors such as elevation in the TLW. The winter-time importance of nitric acid in the precipitation (approximately equal to sulphuric acid) may have implications with respect to imposition of stricter auto emission standards in Canada"--Management perspective.
