Abstract
Abstract Acidification has indirect or higher order effects that seem to be less well studied than direct or first order effects. High order effects may be based on the direct interdependence of species. Such effects may result in the increased or decreased viability of species. This in turn will reverberate in foodwebs and ecosystems to which the affected species belong(s). There may be consequences for geochemical cycles. Higher order effects may also go beyond the direct interdepence of species. Two examples of such effects are discussed. One linking high N-depositions with increased concentrations of the greenhouse gas N2O and associated temperature forcing and another potentially linking acidification with increased deposition of oxidized S-compounds.
