Abstract
The relationship between atmospheric SO2 concentrations and rainwater pH is examined for a coastal locality in North Merseyside, England for the period 1978 to 1982. During this period rainwater pH has risen slightly but significantly while atmospheric SO2 levels have fallen. The relationship between SO2 levels, rainwater pH and wind frequency and wind run from eight sectors of the compass are analyzed. Higher SO2 concentrations coincide with southerly, southeasterly and easterly winds from urban and industrial source areas. Slightly higher frequency and run of wind occur from the south and east during the winter season when SO2 production is increased.
