Atmospheric ammonia (NH 3) released from agriculture is contributing significantly to
acidification and atmospheric NH 3 may have on human health is much less readily …

Ammonia is a basic gas and one of the most abundant nitrogen-containing compounds in
the atmosphere. When emitted, ammonia reacts with oxides of nitrogen and sulfur to form …

Agricultural operations are the largest source of ammonia emissions in the United States
and contribute to the formation of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate, two prevalent …

Gaseous ammonia (NH 3) is the most abundant alkaline gas in the atmosphere. In addition,
it is a major component of total reactive nitrogen. The largest source of NH 3 emissions is …

Recent studies suggest that human activities accelerate the production of reactive nitrogen
on a global scale. Increased nitrogen emissions may lead to environmental impacts …

Ammonia (NH 3) emission from agricultural sources has contributed significantly to air
pollution, soil acidification, water eutrophication, biodiversity loss, and declining human …

Background: Large-scale animal feeding operations compromise regional air quality in the
rural US through emission of pollutants, such as ammonia gas. Exposure to airborne …

Ammonia emitted from animal feeding operations is an air pollutant contributing to the
formation of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5), considered a major environmental risk to …

We use a model of agricultural sources of ammonia (NH3) coupled to a chemical transport
model to estimate the impact of US food export on particulate matter concentrations (PM2 …
