"The contents of this book arose from an international symposium entitled 'Relating Atmospheric Source Apportionment to Vegetation Effects: Establishing Cause and Effect Relationships' held at the Banff Park Lodge in Banff, Alberta, Canada on April 25, 2005"--P. xv.

Book dedicated to Dr David F. Karnosky (1949-2008).

Includes bibliographical references and index.
