...As epilithic species are especially reliant on the atmosphere for their N uptake (Tyler, 1990; Steinnes et al., 1994; Soares & Pearson, 1997), we hypothesized that these would be good indicators for atmospheric NOx pollution and that total N in shoot tissue would be correlated with exposure to traffic density or flow....

...However, these groups of species are often absent from the urban environment, or are of limited value for this kind of work in towns and cities where a good deal of the pollution from traffic occurs (Goodman & Roberts, 1971; Ross, 1990; Tyler, 1990)....

...With the exception of the aquatic and semiaquatic mosses, nearly all mosses rely on the atmosphere for most of their nutrients (Tyler, 1990; Steinnes et al., 1994; Soares & Pearson, 1997), although there is some debate as to the proportion of uptake of nutrients by grassland mosses from the substratum (Bates, 1992)....
