Applying environmental chemistry

  • Analysing chemical pollution of the environment
  • Researching ecotoxicology

Context

Regional effects of fossil fuel use are acidification of inland waters and soils (with effects also on vegetation and forest health) and degradation of forests. Acidification of lakes and water courses make them unsuitable for the survival of some species. Additionally, acidification of soils leads to changes in their chemical composition and structure and affects the ecosystems of which they form part.
