Annual calculated depositions of sulphur and nitrogen for 1985-96

Yearly calculated total (dry+wet) deposition values for Oxidised Sulphur, Oxidised Nitrogen and Reduced Nitrogen are available from this site for the whole 150x150 km2 EMEP grid. The calculations for the period from 1985 to 1996 are performed by the Lagrangian model .

Data are organized as:

  • 1 ASCII file per compound per year
  • with the following format:

    # -----------------------------------------------
    # |  Tot deposition of Reduced Nitrogen, unit : mg(N)/m2
    # |  Period: 19**
    # |  emep/msc-w, 6/8-2002
    # |  Contact person: Anna Benedictow
    # ------------------------------------------------
    #    i      j      dep. value

    Total number of records: 7 + 44 * 37 = 1635
    - 7 lines of documentation
    - Deposition values in all gridcells i=1,44, j=1,37

    Download (all files for compounds and years in 1 zip file) . For identifying the files of the unpacked zip-file it is useful to know that the first five letters of the filename (in parenthesis) indicates which deposition values that are available in the file: Oxidised Sulphur Total Depositions(soxtd), Oxidised Nitrogen Total Depositions(noxtd) and Reduced Nitrogen Total Depositions(nhztd). And the last part of the filename is indicating which year the deposition values are calculated for.

    Remark:
    The deposition value of -9999.00000 means that there are no value for the gridcell.
