Trends in atmospheric reactive nitrogen for the Eastern United States
2011
Pinder, Robert W. | Appel, K Wyat | Dennis, Robin L.
Reactive nitrogen can travel far from emission sources and impact sensitive ecosystems. From 2002 to 2006, policy actions have led to decreases in NOₓ emissions from power plants and motor vehicles. In this study, atmospheric chemical transport modeling demonstrates that these emissions reductions have led to a downward trend in ambient measurements of transported reactive nitrogen, especially atmospheric concentrations and wet deposition of nitrate. The trend in reduced nitrogen, namely ammonium, is ambiguous. As reduced nitrogen becomes a larger fraction of the reactive nitrogen budget, wide-spread NH₃ measurements and improved NH₃ emissions assessments are a critical need.
