Title Is Atmospheric Phosphorus Pollution Altering Global Alpine Lake Stoichiometry?
Creator Brahney, Janice Mahowald, Natalie Ward, Daniel S. Ballantyne, Ashley P. Neff, Jason C.
Description Anthropogenic activities have significantly altered atmospheric chemistry and changed the global mobility of key macronutrients. Here we show that contemporary global patterns in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) emissions drive large hemispheric variation in precipitation chemistry. These global patterns of nutrient emission and deposition (N:P) are in turn closely reflected in the water chemistry of naturally oligotrophic lakes (r2ā€‰=ā€‰0.81, pā€‰<ā€‰0.0001). Observed increases in anthropogenic N...
