Effect of Air Pollution on the Health Status of Spruce Stands A Case Study in the Krkonose Mountains, Czech Republic
Original language description
This paper presents the results of research on local air pollution (nitrogen and sulfur concentrations) and on the changes in the health status of trees observed in spruce stands in the period 1980-2011 in the Krkonose Mountains National Park. Data on precipitation and sulfur and nitrogen deposition were collected in regular 2-week intervals from 1994 to 2010. Precipitation was measured at 5 monitoring stations; the health status of forest stands was evaluated on 6 research plots located in stands dominated by Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst) in zones where there has been a significant threat from air pollution since 1980. The health status of spruce stands was assessed on the basis of the degree of defoliation, classified into 6 levels. In all localities since 1994, the total deposition of sulfates decreased significantly, from 50-80 kg ha(-1) year(-1) to 8-13 kg ha(-1) year(-1); however, no clear trend in the development of nitrogen deposition could be stated. The mean defoliat
