Abstract/Summary

Elevated atmospheric ammonia (NH3) concentrations and nitrogen (N) deposition pose a substantial threat to nitrogen sensitive vegetation in Northern Ireland. Ballynahone Bog SAC is situated in an agriculturally intensive region of NI and experiences high NH3 concentrations. NH3 concentrations have been measured at site since 2014, when a sampling scheme was set up to monitor the status of the bog. A Met Station was installed on the bog in 2016 to analyse local wind conditions. Unfortunately, this met site has only worked intermittently and large gaps in the data exist. The aim of this study is to investigate whether met stations located near to Ballynahone Bog or gridded model estimates could be used as an alternative source of wind data to the measurements recorded from the met station located on Ballynahone bog.
