Popis: White cedar (Thuja occidentalis L.) plants sprayed with deicing salt and kept at 91–100% relative humidity even for 1 day exhibited necrosis of foliage. However, sprayed trees kept at a relative humidity of 50–70% for 20 days showed only slight yellowing of leaf tips. Significantly greater amounts of Na and Cl ions were found in the foliage of plants maintained at high relative humidity.
