Der Chemismus von Niederschlagswässern und die Bedeutung des atmosphärischen Stoffeintrags in Ökosysteme

Abstract

The knowledge of the importance of atmospheric matter input in ecosystems led—on an international scale—to intensive investigations of the atmospheric depositions, especially rainwater quality. On the basis of monitoring networks on local to global scales the spatial and temporal variations of the main and trace components in rain water were investigated. This paper based on data from the literature and from investigations in the GDR and especially in the district of Leipzig.
