They showed the evidence to 77 domain experts (i.e., atmospheric chemists with expertise in condensation trails, and geochemists working
on atmospheric deposition of dust and pollution), and asked about each of the claims made by «SLAP theorists.»

For example, controlling fossil - fuel combustion could reduce
atmospheric nitrogen
deposition on both land and sea.
The monitoring of the snowpack and acid sensitive lakes is designed to assess the linkages between
atmospheric deposition and impacts
on water quality.
The success of this strategy has been monitored using the long term National
Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP), which measures atmospheric deposition and studies its effects on the en
Deposition Program (NADP), which measures
atmospheric deposition and studies its effects on the en
deposition and studies its effects
on the environment.
It is important to note that these impacts do not take account of ancillary stresses
on species due to over-harvesting, habitat destruction, landscape fragmentation, alien species invasions, fire regime change, pollution (such as nitrogen
deposition), or for plants the potentially beneficial effects of rising
atmospheric CO2.
Whereas these effects
on open - ocean pH are calculated to be minor, they can be higher, at rates of 0.02 — 0.12 × 10 − 3 pH units per year (< 10 % of OA by anthropogenic CO2), in coastal ecosystems (Doney et al. 2007), where
atmospheric deposition is intense and the waters can be more weakly buffered.
However, both sediment records of
atmospheric deposition of Hg2 + species at high northern latitudes and
atmospheric GEM concentrations inferred from Greenland firn air support the conclusion that transfer of anthropogenic inorganic mercury through the atmosphere to terrestrial and marine reservoirs occurs
on a large scale.
