Nitrogen in a Changing Atmosphere

Dear colleagues,

The nitrogen cycle has been highly accelerated since the innovation of the Habor–Bosch proces, with: the mixing ratio of nitrous oxide (N₂O) in the atmosphere increasing by approximately 0.8 ppb yr^-1, becoming one of the most important drivers of the current climate change crisis. In the mean time, nitrogenous gases, such as ammonia (NH₃), nitric oxide (NO), nitrous acid (HONO), etc., have become important atmospheric pollutants, threatening human health. In recognition of this shift in emphasis, the aim of this Special Issue is to compile recent advances in the field of nitrogen-driven climate change and atmospheirc pollution.

Topics of interest for the Special Issue include, but are not limited to:

• Processes and mechamisms involved in N₂O, NO, HONO, and NH₃ production and emission
• Land—, hydrosphere—, and biosphere—atmosphere interaction in the biogeochemical N cycle
• Impact of the accelerated nitrogen cycle on climate change
• Impact of the accelerated nitrogen cycle on atmospheric pollution
• Migration, transformation, and dissapearance of nitrogen pollutants in the stratosphere and troposphere
• Influence of climate change on the biogeochemical N cycle and N-related atmospheric pollution
