Bioindication: The I.A.P. Approach

  • Chapter
Monitoring with Lichens — Monitoring Lichens

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((NAIV,volume 7))

Abstract

The symbiosis between algae and fungi enables lichens to colonise various apparently hostile places, like high mountains and deserts. However, the sensitive balance between the symbiotic partners can be easily disturbed, as lichens are generally sensitive to environmental alteration such as changes in air humidity (forestry, urbanisation) and air pollution.
