Aamlid D. & Skogheim I. (2001): The occurrence of Hypogymnia physodes and Melanelia olivacea lichens on birch stems in northern boreal forest in uenced by local air pollution - Norsk Geografisk Tidsskrift–Norwegian Journal of Geography, 55: 94-98

Epiphytic lichen vegetation on birch stems was studied in the border area between Norway and Russia. The area is heavily in- uenced by sulphur dioxide pollution emitted from Russian nickel smelters. Hypogymnia physodes and Melanelia olivacea were the two most abundant lichen species on birch stems in the study area. Their coverage was clearly reduced near the pollution sources. Lichen vegetation cover increased with increasing distance from the pollution source from a ‘lichen desert’ to … Read more...

Aalto-Korte K., Lauerma A. & Alanko K. (2005): Occupational allergic contact dermatitis from lichens in present-day Finland - Contact Dermatitis, 52: 36-38

Lichens are abundant in forests, living on trees, soil, stones and rocks. They contain usnic acid and other lichen acids that are contact allergens. Lichens and liverworts cause woodcutter’s dermatitis, eczema that appears in the forest on the bare skin areas, especially in cold and wet weather. Occupational allergic contact dermatitis from lichens occurs in forestry and horticultural workers and in lichen pickers. Lichens can cause immediate allergy, contact urticaria, rhinitis and asthma … Read more...

Aadaj J., Tabit A., Algouti A., El Myr A., Elhamdi S.B., Tabet C.B., Lakhlili M., Oudour K., Nidsaid Z. & Laadimi Y. (2023): Mapping of lichen biomarkers of atmospheric pollution in the Agadir urban area - Proceeding Book of 3rd International Conference on Scientific and Academic Research ICSAR 2023, 1(7): 489-493

Air pollution refers to a combination of gases and suspended particles present in the atmosphere, whose concentration levels vary depending on emissions and weather conditions. These substances are harmful to human health and the environment. Analyzing air pollution is a key to assess the level of the pollution in an area. Commonly, the spatial distribution of some plants serves as bio-indictorfor air pollution monitoring. Citing for example, lichens, are autotrophic and symbiotic living organisms … Read more...
