Atmospheric deposition is an important source of pollutants and nutrients to ecosystems in the northeastern United States. Estimates of total atmospheric deposition (wet + dry + cloud) are critical, not only to air pollution effects researchers, but also to decision-makers faced with the challenge of assessing policy initiatives. Nonetheless, estimates of total deposition for the Northern Forest region are still inadequate, particularly across complex mountainous landscapes. These regions are often most sensitive to atmospheric inputs and are locations of focused ecosystem research.
