Aquatic Ecosystem Responses to Rapid Recovery from Extreme Acidification and Metal Contamination in Lakes Near Wawa, Ontario

In the region northeast of Wawa, Ontario (Canada), many circumneutral lakes downwind of a nearby iron-sintering plant were strongly acidified (pH 3—4) in response to the emissions of large amounts of sulfur dioxide from 1939—1998.
