Motivation
It is difficult to say anything about uncertainties in model calculations of
Nr-deposition as there are no observations of total Nr deposition
available yet.
This study aims to:
deliver an ensemble map of the total Nr-deposition over Europe based
on 7 regional European CTMs, and to
estimate the inter-model variation in the total Nr-deposition over Europe
validate the models by comparing modelled wet depositions and
concentrations with observations from the EMEP wet deposition network
and NitroEurope IP
