Integrated assessment models for acid rain

This paper reviews 20 acid rain models, with special emphasis on integrated assessment models. Most integrated assessment models for acid rain are developed as tools to assist policy makers in evaluating different abatement options. Such models therefore typically deal with the problem from causes to environmental effects. In this overview, we only include models that at least cover three of the following five components: (i) sources of emissions, (ii) atmospheric transport and transformations, (iii) environmental effects, (iv) abatement and mitigation options and (v) monetary evaluation.
