    Abstract A Forest SO2 Absorption Model (ForSAM) was developed to simulate (1) SO2 plume dispersion from an emission source, (2) subsequent SO2 absorption by coniferous forests growing downwind from the source. There are three modules: (1) a buoyancy module, (2) a dispersion module, and (3) a foliar absorption module. These modules were used to calculate hourly abovecanopy SO2 concentrations and in-canopy deposition velocities, as well as daily amounts of SO2 absorbed by the forest canopy for downwind distances to 42 km. Model performance testing was done with meteorological data (including ambient SO2 concentrations) collected at various locations downwind from a coal-burning power generator at Grand Lake in central New Brunswick, Canada. Annual SO2 emissions from this facility amounted to about 30,000 tonnes. Calculated SO2 concentrations were similar to those obtained in the field. Calculated SO2 deposition velocities generally agreed with published values.

    Abstract A forest disturbance such as clearcutting affects local climate conditions by affecting surface reflectance, amount of snow catch, amount and timing of snowmelt and stream water discharge, soil moisture, soil temperature and soil frost. In this paper, snowpack water equivalents, soil moisture and soil temperature are simulated for pre- and post-harvest conditions at the Nashwaak Experimental Watershed Project. This Project involved a paired watershed experiment, with one of the forest-covered basins cut by way of a conventional harvesting operation, and the other basin left as a control. The computer simulations involved the application of a forest hydrology model (ForHyM) and a soil temperature model (ForSTeM). Both models used monthly amounts of rain and snow and mean monthly air temperatures records as input. Forest-atmosphere energy balances were calculated for year-round conditions. In this report, special attention was given to the energy balance when the ground is covered with snow. Doing so generated a process-oriented approach for calculating snowmelt throughout the winter and at the beginning of spring. Year-round model simulations for stream discharge were compared with pre- and post-harvest discharge observations. Also compared were simulated and observed snowpack water equivalents. Simulated results were in good agreement with field observations, thereby supporting the general calculations made for pre- and post-harvest soil moisture, temperature and frost conditions. Altogether, it was found that clearcutting produced positive as well as negative contributions to the water budget of the harvested basin. Positive contributions were likely due to reduced evapotranspiration. Negative contributions were likely due to reduced snow and fog water catch. Increased ground-level insolation advanced the snowmelt season for the cut basin by about two weeks.
