Looking at the Distribution of Pollution
The isopleth map showing the average concentrations of ions per litre of precipitation shows that the lowest results found were through south-west of France and Spain, through to the west of the U.K. and Ireland and through the north of Scandinavia. The highest concentrations of ions per litre of precipitation were through Germany and eastern France, through to the eastern side of Britain to the south of Scandinavia.
The isopleth map that shows the
measure of acidity micrograms
of sulphur dioxide in precipitation
shows that the higher results were
found in central Europe in the east
of U.K. to Hungary and Germany.
The lowest results were found on the
outskirts of Europe, in the west of the
U.K. to Spain, Portugal and
Scandinavia, (mainly the north).
The similarities of the two maps are
that the lowest results were found in
the western side of Europe and
northern Scandinavia. The difference
is that highest results were vaster through
the whole of Germany compared to part of
it, and the south of Scandinavia is also in this
and also the northeast of France.
The areas that produce the highest amount
