Lichen recolonization in the upper Ohio River valley

Improvement in the air quality of the upper Ohio River valley has led to lichen recolonization at previously depauperate sites. Between 1973 and 1989 the number of lichen species in the area almost doubled and the mean species per site increased from 0.8 to 3.5. An indicator species, Flavoparmelia c...

description Improvement in the air quality of the upper Ohio River valley has led to lichen recolonization at previously depauperate sites. Between 1973 and 1989 the number of lichen species in the area almost doubled and the mean species per site increased from 0.8 to 3.5. An indicator species, Flavoparmelia caperata, was completely absent in 1973 but occurred at half of the study sites in 1989.
