Results of plume chemistry studies to investigate SO2 oxidation during summer and winter and of fly-ash analyses for heavy metals are also used. It is found that: (1) many elements in particulate matter deposited around the plant originate primarily from a different source in summer and in winter; (2) deposition near the source is more alkaline than in outlying areas; (3) wet and dry deposition of acidic oxides of sulfur and nitrogen from the power-plant emissions appear to be the main source of snowpack acidification in downwind areas; and (4) acidic compounds can be transported over long distances before being removed.</style></abstract><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fort McMurray, Athabasca River </style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/4436788193</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OSEMB</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
