Nitrogen and phosphorus loads to the sea (1990-2018) - (v. nov.2021)
Description
Spatial dataset consisting of annual nutrient loads and source apportionments for 1990-2018 estimated at the outlets of freshwater river basins with model GREEN (November 2021 version; Vigiak et al. 2022). Sources of nutrients comprise agriculture (mineral and organic fertilization), atmospheric nitrogen deposition, phosphorus releases from natural areas, scattered dwellings, and point sources (domestic and industrial discharges). Nutrients are reduced by attenuation processes in land, river reaches, and lakes.
The river basin hydrological data model is based on Catchment Characterisation and Modelling (Vogt et al., 2007; https://data.jrc.ec.europa.eu/dataset/fe1878e8-7541-4c66-8453-afdae7469221)
