Ammonia emissions from agricultural products at high resolution across Europe.

ABSTRACT: Ammonia (NH₃) has significant adverse effects on biodiversity, human and ecosystem health. More than 90% of European NH₃ emissions originate from manure and synthetic fertilizer. Understanding emissions from agricultural products at a high-resolution is essential for environmental policy making. Here, we present an Agricultural, Product-specific, AMMOnia emission dataset (AP-AMMO) for 17 crop groups, 2 grass types, and 6 livestock types across Europe at 5-arc minute resolution. We show that European agriculture emitted 3.5Tg NH₃-N in 2017, with major livestock products (dairy cattle, other cattle, and swine) and major crop and grassland products (wheat, barley, maize, rapeseed, and permanent grass) contributing 66% and 14%, respectively.
