...In the PIRLA-I project, paleolimnologists used detailed analyses of short sediment cores in several acid-sensitive regions of the United States (i.e., Adirondack Park – Charles et al. 1990; northern New England – Davis et al. 1994; the Upper Midwest – Kingston et al. 1990; Florida – Sweets 1992; Sweets et al. 1990; and complementary work in the Sierra Nevada region – Whiting et al. 1989) to track changes in specific lakes....

...Charles et al., 1990; Kingston, et al., 1990; Sweets et al., 1990 ) show that lakes in acid-sensitive regions receiving acidic precipitation have acidified (beyond their range of natural variability) and that these changes were correlated with known deposition patterns of strong, inorganic acids....
