Derivation and Mapping of Critical Loads for Nitrogen and Trends in Their Exceedance in Germany
The term “critical load” means a quantitative estimate of an exposure to one or more pollutants below which significant harmful effects on specified sensitive elements of the environment do not occur, according to present knowledge. In the case of nitrogen, both oxidised and reduced compounds contri...
