  • 1. Giessen Univ. (Germany). Inst. fuer Pflanzenoekologie

Description

Bark of Tilia cordata was sampled in 9 cities of Central and South Chile and analysed for sulfur content, conductivity, and pH values. The sulfur contents ranged from 785 to 3420 mg/kg. A good correlation was found between conductivity and sulfur content of the bark. The measured parameters can be used as an indicator of air quality. (orig.)
