This European Standard aims to provide a reliable, repeatable and objective method for assessing epiphytic lichen diversity. According to international literature on the topic (see e.g. [18] for an overall outline), it provides a framework for assessing the impact of anthropogenic intervention, particularly for estimating theeffects of atmospheric pollution.
