Effects based using integrated assessment modelling. Specifies emission ceilings and controls for sulphur, nitrogen oxides, ammonia and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)

The preamble to the Protocol ….- It is the first agreement under the
Convention to deal specifically with reduced nitrogen
- Measures taken to reduce the emissions of nitrogen oxides and ammonia should involve consideration of the full biogeochemical nitrogen cycle

NOx emissions 1000 tons NO2 /year
NH3 emissions 1000 tons/year
NOx reductions mainly due to changes in combustion sectors (40%) and transport (25%)
Decreased NH3 is due to activity changes and control measures in agricultural sector

Nitrogen emissions 1980-2000
Regional differences in N emission changes are more pronounced than for sulphur emissions.

Task Force on Reactive Nitrogen
• Lead countries UK and NL• Background paper and Terms of Reference• WGSR (and WGE, EMEP-SB)
![Page 10: NITROGEN AND THE UNECE CONVENTION ON LONG-RANGE TRANBOUNDARY AIR · PDF fileCONVENTION ON LONG-RANGE TRANBOUNDARY AIR POLLUTION Johan Sliggers Vice-Chair of the Convention’s Working](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030407/5a8404117f8b9ac96a8b4833/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Recommendations Workshop IAM Nr to TF on Reactive Nitrogen
• Awareness raising of linkages policy processes
• Identification of timing and information requirements various policy processes
• Give practical advice on consistency effect based approaches
• Identify synergies and trade offs for policy measures

Short term (Gothenburg Protocol/IAM)
• N-cycle in GAINS, nitrate• Impacts: surface water, groundwater,
coastal waters• Synergies and trade-offs

The Convention’s Agenda
• Review Gothenburg Protocol 2005-2007• EB25: Revision 2008-2009
– Short term is 2008!

Objectives Task Force
• Integrated approach to managing Nr (LT)• Influence strategies
– Within CLRTAP– Outside e.g. UNFCCC, CBD, EU
• Tasks TF RN• Continue work EG on NH3
