Plenary lectures and invited speakers
Acid rain is such a broad topic with so much activity in so many different disciplines,
that is important to step back and get an overview. The program of plenary
lectures by distinguished speakers has been assembled to provide just such a
qualified overview of the central themes to be addressed at the conference.
Invited plenary lectures for the Acid Rain 2005:
Charles T. Driscoll, Syracuse University, USA – Effects of the acidic
deposition on aquatic ecosystems (confirmed)
Henning Rodhe, Stockholm University, Sweden – History and present of the acid
rain research – an overview (confirmed)
Bridgett Emmett, Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, Bangor, UK – Acid
deposition and the nitrogen cycle (confirmed)
Roland Psenner, University of Innsbruck, Austria – Global Change and Acid
Rain (confirmed)
Jakub Hruska, Czech Geological Survey, Czech Republic – Effects of the acidic
deposition on terrestrial ecosystems (confirmed)
Stephen A. Norton, University of Maine, USA – Pollution by non-acidic
pollutants and their linkage with acidification effects (confirmed)
Keith Bull, United Nations, Switzerland – Interface between the science of
acid rain and policy (confirmed)
