A linearized version of a non-linear atmospheric chemistry model was used for calculating oxidized N. Model computations were found to be consistent with the observed spatial pattern of wet nitrate deposition in Europe. Interannual meteorological variability was estimated to cause a typical year-to-year variation in annual oxidized N deposition of about 6 to 10%. Nitrogen deposition was computed for several NOx emissions reduction scenarios. These scenarios were derived from an OECD study and applied to the 27 largest countries in Europe. Most reduction scenarios affected the deposition pattern of oxidized N, but the most extreme NOx emission reduction scenario did not change very much the overall pattern of total (oxidized N plus ammonia N) N deposition. Depending on the desired level of environmental protection, it may be necessary to reduce ammonia emissions in addition to NOx emissions in order to reduce N deposition in Europe. date: 1989-09 date_type: published publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers id_number: 10.1007/BF00469001 creators_browse_id: 1710 creators_browse_id: 1685 full_text_status: none publication: Water, Air, & Soil Pollution volume: 47 number: 1-2 pagerange: 101-123 refereed: TRUE issn: 0049-6979 coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_project: no fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article citation: Bartnicki, J. & Alcamo, J.
