Finalist for the 2021 PROSE Award for Environmental Science! An
integrated approach to understanding and mitigating the problem of
excess nitrogen Human activities generate large amounts of excess
nitrogen, which has dramatically altered the nitrogen cycle.
Reactive forms of nitrogen, especially nitrate and ammonia, are
particularly detrimental. Given the magnitude of the problem, there
is an urgent need for information on reactive nitrogen and its
effective management. Nitrogen Overload: Environmental Degradation,
Ramifications, and Economic Costs presents an integrated,
multidisciplinary review of alterations to the nitrogen cycle over
the past century and the wide-ranging consequences of
nitrogen-based pollution, especially to aquatic ecosystems and
human health. Volume highlights include: Comprehensive background
information on the nitrogen cycle Detailed description of
anthropogenic nitrogen sources Review of the environmental,
economic, and health impacts of nitrogen pollution Recommendations
and strategies for reducing humanity's nitrogen footprint
Discussion of national nitrogen footprints and worldwide examples
of mitigation policies The American Geophysical Union promotes
discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.
Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide
resources for researchers, students, and professionals. Read the
