Recent incorporation of coupled soil biogeochemical and bi-directional NH 3 air–surface exchange algorithms into regional air quality models holds promise for further reducing uncertainty in estimates of NH 3 emissions from fertilized soils. While this represents a significant advancement over previous approaches, the evaluation and improvement of such modeling systems for fertilized crops requires process-level field measurements over extended periods of time that capture the range of soil…
