Eutrophication of coastal ecosystems
>400 dots around the world. They indicate sites where eutrophication of coastal ecosystems has been reported.
Their number has about doubled each decade since the 1960s.
ICP MM, 11-15 May 2009 observed N effects.ppt16
Conclusions and outlook
The pictures confirm that
Effects are observed thanks to field experiments and monitoring programmes in (semi-)natural ecosystems.
Effects occur at low and high deposition levels.
Other studies, including many reported within the LRTAP Convention, show that:
Effects are described by dose – response relationships.
These relationships are used in models.
Models are useful to optimise policies.
Models forecast continued widespread effects of nitrogen on ecosystems.
