Abstract
The acid rain problem caused by industrial production and human activities has become more and more serious, and China has become the third-largest acid rain pollution area after Europe and North America. Survey data show that the distribution area of acid rain in China accounts for 5.5% to 6.4% of the total land area in China, mainly in the south of the Yangtze river and the east of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. As the basic unit of the terrestrial ecosystem, plants and soil are extremely vulnerable to acid rain.
