Abstract/Summary

Annual report to Defra (Project SCF0102). • Agricultural emissions of ammonia, methane and nitrous oxide for 2015 were spatially distributed across the UK, and maps produced. • Agricultural emission sources were spatially distributed using the CEH/University of Edinburgh AENEID model. The model incorporates detailed agricultural census data, landcover data, agricultural practice information (e.g. fertiliser application rates, stocking densities) and emission source strength data from the UK emissions inventories for agriculture 2015 (Misselbrook et al. 2016, Cardenas et al. 2016). • All emission maps correspond to the totals reported by Rothamsted Research North Wyke (RResNW) for 2015 (Misselbrook et al. 2016, Cardenas et al. 2016).
