Since pre-industrial times, human-induced air and water pollution has become one of the most pervasive anthropogenic pressures. Nitrogen emissions from agriculture, fossil-fuel combustion, wastewater discharge, etc., modified by hydrological alteration and climate change, propagate through tightly coupled air-wat...
