A key Earth system science question is the role of atmospheric deposition in supplying vital
nutrients to the phytoplankton that form the base of marine food webs. Industrial and …

The budget of reactive nitrogen (Nr; oxidized and reduced inorganic and organic forms of
nitrogen) has at least doubled since the preindustrial era due to human activities. Excess Nr …

We estimate the global anthropogenic phosphorus (P) loads to freshwater and the
associated grey water footprints (GWFs) for the period 2002–2010, at a spatial resolution of …

This chapter addresses the biogeochemical cycles of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4),
and nitrous oxide (N2O). The three greenhouse gases have increased in the atmosphere …

This paper presents a summary of the work done within the European Union's Seventh
Framework Programme project ECLIPSE (Evaluating the Climate and Air Quality Impacts of …

Reactive nitrogen emissions into the atmosphere are increasing as a result of human
activities, affecting nitrogen deposition to the surface and impacting the productivity of …

This paper evaluates the current status of global modeling of the organic aerosol (OA) in the
troposphere and analyzes the differences between models as well as between models and …

Rainwater dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an important role in the biogeochemical
cycle and evolution of organic matter in the land-atmosphere interface. To better understand …

We report a new synthesis of best estimates of the inputs of fixed nitrogen to the world ocean
via atmospheric deposition and compare this to fluvial inputs and dinitrogen fixation. We …

The global nitrogen (N) cycle at the beginning of the 21st century has been shown to be
strongly influenced by the inputs of reactive nitrogen (N r) from human activities, including …
