Bartholmeß, H./ U. Stark/ W. Nobel 2012: Biological long-term observation of air pollution. - Gefahrstoffe Reinhaltung der Luft 72(4): 132-138. [RLL List # 227 / Rec.# 33860]
Abstract: In the area surrounding the Altbach/Deizisau power plant an area-based environmental monitoring programme was installed in 1983, using biological indicators and augmented by immission measurements and soil analyses. The approximate cause was the granting of approval in 1981 under immission-control law for the building of a new heat- and power station on the Altbach/Deizisau site. The programme continued on a voluntary basis till 1998, always adjusted to current questions in air pollution control strategy. In terms of a long-term observation of air pollution another two lichen mappings were carried out after the end of the monitoring programme in 1998 so that at present data are available for this area based on lichen mappings performed over the last 25 years. Since 1983 air quality always increased up to 2003. This positive development stopped in 2008 and currently the air quality is decreasing from a high level to a moderate level. But there are still zones with a high air quality level in the north-easterly part of the mapping area, respectively a low level in the southerly part. The influence of eutrophicating immissions is also increasing up to a moderate level. As a reaction, the lichen species promoted by these eutrophicating immissions are increasing, other species are displaced. This is primarily caused by changes in air pollution involving a decrease in SO
