Europe Nutrient Management - Guided Approaches for GreaterExport reduction

Abstract

Climate change is projected to profoundly impact catchment nutrientdynamics worldwide. Many European aquatic ecosystems are alreadythreatened by nutrient pollution and eutrophication, among otherenvironmental challenges. In Europe, the climate and anthropogenicdrivers for excess nutrient pollution vary regionally due to climate andanthropogenic differences, highlighting the need for better cross-boundary management of nutrient dynamics and maximising relatedProvisioning (water supply and food/drink), (2) Regulating (waterpurification), (3) Supporting (nutrient cycling), and (4) Cultural(recreation) ecosystem services.
