  3. Nitrous Oxide (N2O) GHG balance Particulate Matter Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Ammonium nitrate in rain (NH4NO3) Further emission of NOx & N2O carrying on the cascade Ammonia (NH3) Terrestrial Eutrophication & Soil Acidification Livestock farming Natural ecosystems Aquatic Eutrophication Leached Nitrate (NO3-) Nitrate in streamwaters Atmospheric N2fixed to reactive nitrogen (NR) The Nitrogen Cascade NR Fertilizer manufacture NR Crops for food & animal feed

  4. The Nitrogen Challenge • Multi-sourceagriculture, fossil fuel, natural • Multi-pollutantN2O, NOx, NH3, aquatic NO3-, aerosol etc • Multi-problemGHG balance, biodiversity, water quality, human health • Multi-receptorForests & other terrest. ecosystems, agriculture, rivers, stratosphere, urban, coastal & marine, humans Can the scientific community handle it?

  5. Net GHG Nitric Acid (HNO3) Ozone (O3) Carbon dioxide (CO2) Wet deposition NH4+ and NO3- AerosolNH4NO3 Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) Methane (CH4) Particle Organic Nitrogen (PON) GREENGRASS Ammonia (NH3) Nitric oxide (NO) Nitrous oxide (N2O) Volatile Organic Nitrogen (VON) NOFRETETE GRAMINAE Land-atmosphere exchange of nitrogen Nitrogen community previously splitinto separated research efforts

  6. NitroEurope IP What is the effect of reactive nitrogen supply on the direction and magnitude of net greenhouse gas budgets for Europe? Effect of N on the GHG balance:
