Global estimates of gaseous emissions of NO3, NO and N2O from agricultural land

This page provides a description and a link to a "Global estimates of gaseous emissions of NO3, NO and N2O from agricultural land" database that provides information needed when modeling exposure levels or performing exposure assessment.

Short description

This report provides a comprehensive review of the literature about emissions of NH3, N2O and NO, and examines the regulating factors, measurement techniques and models. It draws these data together and generates global emission estimates that can serve as a basis for further addressing the issues of fertilizer use efficiency and environmental impact.
