      Atmospheric nitrogen (N) pollution is considered responsible for a substantial decline in plant species richness and for altered community structures in terrestrial habitats worldwide. Nitrogen affects habitats through ...
    • Dynamic Modeling and Target Loads of Sulfur and Nitrogen for Surface Waters in Finland, Norway, Sweden, and the United Kingdom 

      Posch, Maximilian; Aherne, Julian; Moldan, Filip; Evans, Chris D.; Forsius, Martin; Larssen, Thorjørn; Helliwell, Rachel C.; Cosby, B Jack (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The target load concept is an extension of the critical load concept of air pollution inputs to ecosystems. The advantage of target loads over critical loads is that one can define the deposition and the point in time ...
    • Long-term changes (1990–2015) in the atmospheric deposition and runoff water chemistry of sulphate, inorganic nitrogen and acidity for forested catchments in Europe in relation to changes in emissions and hydrometeorological conditions

      The international Long-Term Ecological Research Network (ILTER) encompasses hundreds of long-term research/monitoring sites located in a wide array of ecosystems that can help us understand environmental change across the ...
    • Modelling study of soil C, N and pH response to air pollution and climate change using European LTER site observations 

      Holmberg, Maria; Aherne, Julian; Austnes, Kari; Beloica, Jelena; De Marco, Alessandra; Dirnböck, Thomas; Fornasier, Maria Francesca; Goergen, Klaus; Futter, Martyn; Lindroos, Antti-Jussi; Krám, Pavel; Neirynck, Johan; Nieminen, Tiina Maileena; Pecka, Tomasz; Posch, Maximilian; Pröll, Gisela; Rowe, Ed C.; Scheuschner, Thomas; Schlutow, Angela; Valinia, Salar; Forsius, Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Current climate warming is expected to continue in coming decades, whereas high N deposition may stabilize, in contrast to the clear decrease in S deposition. These pressures have distinctive regional patterns and their ...
    • Review of the Gothenburg Protocol: Chemical and biological responses in surface waters and soils (ICP Waters report 89/2007) 

      Wright, R.; Posch, Maximilian; Cosby, B. Jack; Forsius, Martin; Skjelkvåle, B.L. (NIVA-rapport;5475, Research report, 2007-08)
      Monitoring data from ICP Waters and ICP Integrated Monitoring as well as other sources show clear and large regional recovery in surface water chemistry in response to the large decreases in deposition of sulphur and to a ...
