  • Organic nitrogen 60%

anthropogenic.

  • Total N deposition

estimate increases by about 20% relative to simulations without ON.

  • About 20-25% of total

deposited N is ON.

  • About 10% of the emitted

nitrogen oxides are deposited as ON instead of inorganic nitrogen(IN) as is considered in most global models.
