1 NitroEurope IP The nitrogen cycle and its influence on the European greenhouse gas balance Mark Sutton, Francesca Cotrufo, Claus Beier, Klaus Butterbach Bahl, Pierre Cellier, Wim de Vries and Jan Willem Erisman (members of the Scientific Steering Committee of NEU)

2 Multi-pollutant interactions for nitrogen Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) Abatement may swap one pollutant for another in the nitrogen cascade Further NO & N 2 O Nitrate in streamwaters NH 4 NO 3 in precipitation Ammonia (NH 3 ) Nitric oxide (NO) Nitrate leaching NO 3 -

3 NitroEurope IP What is the effect of reactive nitrogen supply on the direction and magnitude of net greenhouse gas budgets for Europe? To what extent would a more-integrated management of the N-cycle and its interactions with the C-cycle have potential to reduce greenhouse gas and N r emissions simultaneously?

4 NitroEurope Overal Science Structure

5 Component 1: NEU Flux Network Flux methods development –A1.1. Advanced micrometeorological methods (for process analysis) –A1.2. Low cost micrometeorological methods –(for flux monitoring) Flux network measurements –Three tier network Plant and soil processes –Advanced process studies (A1.4) –Supporting the micromet network

6 C1: NEU Flux C2: Manipulation Networks 13 Level 3 Super Sites 9 Level 2 Regional Sites 50 Level 1 Inferential Sites 22 Core Manipulation Sites 14 Assoc. Manipulation Sites

7 Component 3: NEU Plot Modelling

8 Overlays: Fields, farmsteads: source areas Forest & shrub: sink areas Local hydrological dispersion Local atmospheric dispersion Farm decision making units Conservation decision units Component 4: NEU Landscapes

9 Landscapes integrate multiple spatial scales relevant for multi-pollutant assessment Farmsteads Farm units (fields & buildings) Water dispersion Atmospheric dispersion

10 Component 5: NEU Integration A5.1. GIS Input Data A5.2. Scenario devlpt. A5.3. Multi-sector model A5.4 Ecoystem models
