2016 International Nitrogen Initiative Conference, Mark Wilmot “AERIUS science at the core of policy and practice”
Introduction
๏ The European Birds/Habitats Directiveensures the conservation of a widerange of rare, threatened or endemicanimal and plant species
๏ Excess in nitrogen as well ashydrology are the two key componentsin northern Europe

๏ 118 of 162 sites withexcessive nitrogendeposition
๏A significant decrease isrequired to achieve N2000goals in terms ofconservation objectives ofthe EU directive
๏Rigid norms, DutchCouncil of State (excessdefined by critical loads )
๏ Assessments focus onlyon Nitrogen
๏Unrealistic level of detail
๏Difficulties with assessmentof accumulating effects
๏ Permits issuing in generalcomes to a halt
๏When permits issued it is acostly and lengthyprocesses

๏ The premise of PAS is that a reduction in nitrogen deposition andextra effort on ecological restoration will enable recovery of habitats
๏ Assessment on Nitrogen, Hydrology and other major effects thatthreaten the quality of habitats
๏ Legally embedded in National law
๏ Room for development (permitting expanding or new activities)
๏ Monitoring and hands-on control

What is AERIUS?
AERIUS is an Open Source software instrument specificallydeveloped to support the Integrated Approach to Nitrogen forthe evaluation of policy decisions, ecologicalassessments as well as issuing permits.
AERIUS combines the complexity of atmospherictransportation modeling, ecological assessments and reportingwith the ease of use of e.g. online banking.
AERIUS products are publicly available and free of charge
