Nitrogen inputs in China’s coastal waters are strongly concentrated in areas close to river mouths and regions with marine aquaculture production
View ArticleSocietal benefits of halving agricultural ammonia emissions in China far...
Mitigating agricultural ammonia (NH3) emissions in China is urgently needed to avoid further damage to human and ecosystem health.
View ArticleA comprehensive quantification of global nitrous oxide sources and sinks.
Global human-induced emissions of nitrous oxide, which are dominated by nitrogen additions to croplands, increased by 30% over the past four decades to 7.3 (4.2-11.4) teragrams of nitrogen per year....
View ArticleGlobal Challenges for Nitrogen Science-Policy Interactions: Towards the...
In this paper, we describe how a coherent system for science evidence provision is being developed to support policy development through the ‘International Nitrogen Management System’ (INMS).

In the global setting of the International Nitrogen Initiative (INI), the European Centre facilitates enhanced cooperation and integration among European researchers, policy makers and practitioners on...
View ArticlePotential of Extensification of European and Dutch Agriculture for a More...
In this article, we explore the potential of sustainable extensification for agriculture in the European Union (EU) and the Netherlands by analyzing cases and scenario studies focusing on reducing N...
View ArticleA credit system to solve agricultural nitrogen pollution
We propose a framework to design economic incentives to farmers to mitigate nitrogen pollution in contrasting regions of the world.
View ArticleQuantification of global and national nitrogen budgets for crop production
Input–output estimates of nitrogen on cropland are essential for improving nitrogen management and better understanding the global nitrogen cycle. Here, we compare 13 nitrogen budget datasets covering...
View ArticleAbating ammonia is more cost-effective than nitrogen oxides for global...
Worldwide, more than 4 million people die prematurely every year due to ambient air pollution. This is more than from malnutrition or overweight. Particulate matter (PM2.5, particles smaller than 2.5...
View ArticlePhosphorus for Sustainable Development Goal target of doubling smallholder...
The supply of phosphorous is crucial to food security. Future phosphorous management will therefore play an important role in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2, zero hunger).
View ArticleEstablishing long-term nitrogen response of global cereals to assess...
Insight into the response of cereal yields to nitrogen fertilizer is fundamental to improving nutrient management and policies to sustain farm economy and food sufficiency with minimum nitrogen pollution.
View ArticleHalving nitrogen waste in the European Union food systems requires both...
This paper analyses options to halve nitrogen losses to the environment by 2030, which is a target of the Farm to EU Fork Strategy.
View ArticleFrom planetary to regional boundaries for agricultural nitrogen pollution
Excessive agricultural nitrogen use causes environmental problems globally, to an extent that it has been suggested that a safe planetary boundary has been exceeded.
View ArticleCost-effective mitigation of nitrogen pollution from global croplands
Based on a meta-analysis of 1,521 worldwide field observations, 11 key measures were identified that reduce global nitrogen losses from croplands to air and water by 30–70%, while increasing crop yield...
View ArticleHindcasting harmful algal bloom risk due to land-based nutrient pollution in...
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have been increasing in frequency, areal extent and duration due to the large increase in nutrient inputs from land-based sources to coastal seas, and cause significant...
View ArticleEffects of Nitrogen Emissions on Fish Species Richness across the World’s...
The increasing application of synthetic fertilizer has tripled nitrogen (N) inputs over the 20th century. N enrichment decreases water quality and threatens aquatic species such as fish through...
