However, humans now dominate the nitrogen cycle, and nitrogen emissions from human activity have real costs: water and air pollution, climate change, and detrimental effects on human health, biodiversity, and natural habitats. Too little nitrogen limits ecosystem processes, while too much nitrogen transforms ecosystems profoundly. The California Nitrogen Assessment is the first comprehensive account of nitrogen flows, practices, and policies for California, encompassing all nitrogen flows-not just those associated with agriculture-and their impacts on ecosystem services and human wellbeing. How California handles nitrogen issues will be of interest nationally and internationally, and the goal of the assessment is to link science with action and to produce information that affects both future policy and solutions for addressing nitrogen pollution. This book also provides a model for application of integrated ecosystem assessment methods at regional and state (subnational) levels. 606 $aNitrogen$xEnvironmental aspects$zCalifornia 606 $aNitrogen cycle$xEnvironmental aspects$zCalifornia 606 $aNitrogen fertilizers$xGovernment policy$zCalifornia 606 $aBiodiversity conservation$zCalifornia 610 $aagriscience. 610 $aair pollution. 610 $aair quality. 610 $abiodiversity conservation. 610 $abiodiversity. 610 $acalifornia agriculture. 610 $acalifornias nitrogen cycle. 610 $aclimate change. 610 $aclimate science. 610 $aecology. 610 $aenvironmental science. 610 $aintegrated ecosystem assessment. 610 $alife sciences. 610 $anitrogen and climate change. 610 $anitrogen cycle. 610 $anitrogen emissions. 610 $anitrogen fertilizers. 610 $anitrogen flows. 610 $anitrogen. 610 $apollution california. 610 $ascientists. 610 $ause of nitrogen. 610 $awater pollution california. 615 0$aNitrogen$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aNitrogen cycle$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aNitrogen fertilizers$xGovernment policy 615 0$aBiodiversity conservation 676 $a631.8/409794 702 $aTomich$b Thomas P.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798400603321 996 $aThe California Nitrogen Assessment$93801253 997 $aUNINA
