Abstract

The First International Nitrogen Conference provided an opportunity for researchers and decision-makers to exchange information on environmental pollution by nitrogen compounds on three scales: global, continental/regional and local. The main topics were air, ground water and surface water pollution; emission sources, atmospheric chemistry, deposition processes and effects; disturbance of nitrogen cycles, critical loads and levels; assessments, policy development and evaluation; target groups and abatement techniques; and new approaches leading to an integrated abatement strategy.
The peer-reviewed papers from the Conference presented in this volume will provide readers with a comprehensive review of the transport, deposition and impact on ecosystems of nitrogen.

The peer-reviewed papers from the conference presented in this volume will provide readers with a comprehensive review of the transport, deposition and impact on ecosystems of nitrogen. This volume is recommended for researchers studying environmental chemistry, toxicology and modeling, as well as environmental managers and policy makers.
