spatial distribution of ammonia (NH3) emissions are an essential
input to models of atmospheric transport and deposition. This is
especially important when resulting deposition maps are used to
calculate patterns of critical loads exceedance or to determine
suitable abatement measures. A new methodology has been
developed to model the distribution of agricultural ammonia
emissions and is applied here for the UK. The model employs a
specific spatial weighted redistribution of NH3 emission sources
onto suitable landcover types at a 1-km grid level. Key input
data to the model are agricultural census data, a satellite-
based landcover map and estimates of
