The nitrogen concentration/flux of water is very sensitive to the response of Net Anthropogenic Nitrogen Inputs (NANI), but the research on the dynamic response of nitrogen concentration to NANI is still rarely reported. In this study, the source of Zhaoshandu water source in Zhejiang Province, China, was used as the research object. The dynamic response of total nitrogen (TN) concentration to NANI in the basin was quantitatively analysed from 2005 to 2014. The results show that the NANI of the water source has a growing trend. It has increased by 6.73% in ten years. The average annual average of NANI is 85.76 kg (hm2·a-1), which is 1.7 times the national average of 2009. The average contribution rate of atmospheric nitrogen, chemical fertilizer nitrogen, food and feed nitrogen and crop fixed nitrogen is 40.98%, 34.06%, 20.25% and 4.7% respectively. The spatial difference of NANI is large, showing an increasing trend from the upstream mountainous area along the downstream. The sub-basin 2 is the key source of nitrogen pollution in this water source. NANI is the only independent variable of the TN concentration regression model with a variance interpretation rate of 55.4%. In the future, it is necessary to reduce the nitrogen input intensity of nitrogen, food and feed for chemical fertilizers as the main target, and to achieve the goal of water quality improvement by reducing the NANI intensity in the basin.
