Managing nitrogen legacies to accelerate water quality improvement
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
Legacy nitrogen accumulated from decades of intensive agriculture contributes significantly to delays in water quality improvement. The paper emphasizes the need to quantify these legacies, adjust policy expectations, and develop integrated management strategies that consider lag times and balance short-term and long-term costs and benefits.
