It also provides a simple but effective diagram of the sources and receptors of acid rain. This website is a good source of introductory information for the complexity of how the quality of water is effected.

Now a new paper in Journal of Physical Chemistry finds that HCFCs may also be increasing acid rain. Computer models show HCFCs break down in the upper atmosphere to form oxalic acid, one culprit in acid rain.
The researchers suggest the new computer model could help determine whether replacements for the replacements ...
