Title

Factors Responsible for the Consequences of Acid Rain

Abstract

Acid rain, often referred to as acid drainage or acid precipitation, has a pH of about 5.2 or below. The acid rain source is Sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX: NO and NO2 combination) emitted from human activities, such as fossil-fuel combustion. The presence of these acids and other environmental components emits protons which raises acidity of the soil and not only mobilizes but also leaches positive nutrient ions and increases radioactive metals. This improvement in the chemical characteristics of soil reduces fertility and has an adverse impact on agricultural and forest trees production and development. Acid buildup reduces the pH of sea water and causes an acidification of water sources which causes damage to marine organisms. In certain ways, acid rain affects every aspect of the ecosystem and also has a harmful effect on human health. Acid rain also deteriorates air-contaminated soils, deteriorating things built up by man, such as homes and temples of calcareous and marble. Acid rain has drawn broad attention of scientists and the public because of its devastating impact on ecosystems. This review provides an overview of factors responsible for the consequences of acid rain. This review gives the direction to the new research possibilities that needs to be explored in order to mitigate the effect of acid rain.

Key Words
