TL;DR: It is shown that rising trends in DOC between 1990 and 2004 can be concisely explained by a simple model based solely on changes in deposition chemistry and catchment acid-sensitivity, and that the rise in DOC is integral to recovery from acidification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kemp,Jaakko Mannio,Don Monteith,Peter S. Murdoch,S. Patrick,A. Rebsdorf,Brit Lisa Skjelkvåle,M. P. Stainton,T. Traaen,H. van Dam,Katherine E. Webster,J. Wieting,A. Wilander +22 more
TL;DR: This article analyzed regional trends between 1980 and 1995 in indicators of acidification (sulphate, nitrate and base-cation concentrations, and measured (Gran) alkalinity) for 205 lakes and streams in eight regions of North America and Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regional scale evidence for improvements in surface water chemistry 1990–2001

TL;DR: Results from the ICP Waters programme clearly show widespread improvement in surface water acid-base chemistry, in response to emissions controls programs and decreasing acidic deposition, which may lead to biological recovery in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends in Surface Water Chemistry in Acidified Areas in Europe and North America from 1990 to 2008

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed trends in surface water chemistry of 173 acid-sensitive sites from 12 regions in Europe and North America and demonstrated that chemical recovery was demonstrated in the form of positive trends in pH and/or alkalinity and acid neutralizing capacity (ANC).
Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery from acidification of lakes in Finland, Norway and Sweden 1990–1999
TL;DR: In the Nordic countries, sulphur deposition has decreased by about 60% since the early 1980s as mentioned in this paper, with only a minor decrease in the late 1990s, which was most probably the result of climatic variations.
