Urban Air Pollution and Forests
At present, roughly half of the world's population lives in urban centers. There are now more than 20 cities with a population of over 10 million inhabitants, compared to less than 5 about 50 years ago. This tendency toward urbanization is expected to continue, particularly in the developing world. A consequence of this growing trend is that millions of people are being exposed to harmful levels of urban air pollutants caused mainly by emissions from motor vehicles and from industrial and domestic activities involving the combustion of fossil fuels. The driving force for the design and implementation of emission control strate gies aimed at improving air quality has been the protection of th...

Climate Change 2014: Mitigation of Climate Change
This latest Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will again form the standard reference for all those concerned with climate change and its consequences, including students, researchers and policy makers in environmental science, meteorology, climatology, biology, ecology, atmospheric chemistry and environmental policy.
Air Pollution and Multiple Stresses
Presents proceedings of an international conference on the combined effects of air pollutants together with other aspects of global change on all levels within forest ecosystems. Topics of papers presented include: air pollutants and natural stresses on forests; effects of single pollutants such as ozone, sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen compounds; effects of pollutants in combination; edaphic factors and nutrient cycling; effects of acid deposition; and inciting or predisposing factors for forest decline.
