Elemental compositions of lichens from Duolun County, Inner Mongolia, China: Origin, road effect and species difference

Abstract To assess the response of lichen elemental compositions to road traffic and species difference in the context of high dust input and anthropogenic emissions, two foliose epiphytic lichens (Phaeophyscia hirtuosa, PHh; Candelaria fibrosa, CAf) were sampled near a road adjacent to Dolon Nor To...
