Abstract

National inventories calculate ammonia emission from livestock manure using static emission factors. These do not account for local environmental condition, management practice or variation in manure composition. We present a model that estimates emission from liquid manure per area and time as related to slurry composition, temperature and surface covers. Data was extracted from articles and used to parameterize and validate the model, and the scenario calculations demonstrate the usefulness of the model.
