A database of annual atmospheric acid and nutrient deposition to China's forests.

ABSTRACT: Anthropogenic emissions have substantially altered atmospheric acid and nutrient deposition in China. Understanding the status and characteristics of acid and nutrient deposition to China's forests is crucial to assess the consequent impacts, and to better guide forest management options. Based on a comprehensive literature review, here I present an updated database for annual acid and nutrient deposition during the period 1991-2015 in China's forests (CFAND 2.0). The database includes information from 56 forested sites on the water fluxes of bulk precipitation and throughfall, the concentrations of H⁺ (pH), dissolved inorganic nitrogen (N) (NH₄⁺ and NO₃^-), sulfur (S), dissolved phosphorus (P), potassium (K⁺), calcium (Ca
