About this ebook
EPA contract 68-03-2442 provided support for three years of the studies to determine the chronic effects of photochemical oxidant air pollutants on a western mixed conifer forest ecosystem. This report deals with the year 1976-77 and is the final publication on EPA contract 68-03-2442. Computer simulation programs have been written for some of the subsections. Subsystems which received greatest attention during this study were: major tree species response to oxidant dose, tree population dynamics, tree growth, moisture dynamics, soil chemical and physical properties, tree mortality relative to disease, insects and other factors, epidemiology of forest tree pathogens with emphasis on Fomes annosus, cone and seed production, tree seedling establishment, litter production and litter decomposition relative to microfloral decomposer populations.
