  Sulfur oxides (SOx) can occur naturally from such sources as volcanoes,
  sulfur springs and decaying organic matter, or from anthropogenic sources
  such as fossil fuel combustion, brickworks, and spontaneous combustion in
  coal mine spoil heaps. Sulfur oxides in the atmosphere are usually removed
  by acid rain.
