Abstract

A map showing regions with sulfur dioxide emissions greater than 1.5 tons per square kilometer in 1980, focusing on the Midwest and areas along the Ohio River. Contours on the map indicate pH levels, where lower values represent higher acidity. The map highlights areas most affected by acid rain and the potential environmental impacts, particularly in regions like the Adirondacks and New England.
