International audience Sulphate deposition in south-central Ontario declined between 1976 and 2000 by more than 50%, whereas lake sulphate (SO 4 2? ) concentrations decreased by, on average, only half as much. To investigate the factors that controlled this slower than expected response, the tempora...
