Operational mapping of atmospheric nitrogen deposition to the Baltic Sea
Abstract. A new model system for mapping and forecasting nitrogen deposition to the Baltic Sea has been developed. The system is based on the Lagrangian variable scale transport-chemistry model ACDEP (Atmospheric Chemistry and Deposition model), and aims at delivering deposition estimates to be used as input to marine ecosystem models. The system is tested by comparison of model results to meas...
متن کاملWet and Dry Atmospheric Depositions of Inorganic Nitrogen during Plant Growing Season in the Coastal Zone of Yellow River Delta
The ecological problems caused by dry and wet deposition of atmospheric nitrogen have been widespread concern in the world. In this study, wet and dry atmospheric depositions were monitored in plant growing season in the coastal zone of the Yellow River Delta (YRD) using automatic sampling equipment. The results showed that SO4 (2-) and Na(+) were the predominant anion and cation, respectively,...
متن کاملAirshed Domains for Modeling Atmospheric Deposition of Oxidized and Reduced Nitrogen to the Neuse/Pamlico System of North Carolina
1 ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition is important to nutrient loadings to coastal estuaries. Atmospheric emissions of nitrogen travel hundreds of kilometers as they are removed via atmospheric deposition. Long-range transport from outside the Neuse/Pamlico system in North Carolina is an important contributor to the total (wet + dry) deposition of nitrogen to the watershed, estuary and Sound. We ne...
متن کاملLimited impact of atmospheric nitrogen deposition on marine productivity due to biogeochemical feedbacks in a global ocean model
The impact of increasing anthropogenic atmospheric nitrogen deposition on marine biogeochemistry is uncertain. We performed simulations to quantify its effect on nitrogen cycling and marine productivity in a global 3-D ocean biogeochemistry model. Nitrogen fixation provides an efficient feedback by decreasing immediately to deposition, whereas water column denitrification increases more gradual...
متن کاملImpacts of atmospheric nutrient deposition on marine productivity: Roles of nitrogen, phosphorus, and iron
[1] Nutrients are supplied to the mixed layer of the open ocean by either atmospheric deposition or mixing from deeper waters, and these nutrients drive nitrogen and carbon fixation. To evaluate the importance of atmospheric deposition, we estimate marine nitrogen and carbon fixation from present‐day simulations of atmospheric deposition of nitrogen, phosphorus, and iron. These are compared wit...
