Nitrogen deposition in the UK at 1km resolution, 1990-2017
This dataset contains total nitrogen (N) deposition at a 1km x 1km resolution in the UK, annually from 1990 to 2017. N deposition is presented as reduced N (NHx) and oxidised N (NOy), both of which are split into wet and dry portions. Values are given for forest and…

Can N2O emissions be reduced in winter wheat by split additions of nitrogen fertiliser? ASSIST 2020
Investigating whether splitting total nitrogen fertiliser application can improve nitrogen use efficiency in a winter wheat crop. Can splitting total N addition into 2, 4 or 6 application doses minimise excess soil N leaching, volatilisation and gaseous losses? NB:…
