Particulate nitrogen (PN) in stormwater runoff can increase dramatically with large storms, thus constituting a significant component of nitrogen cycling in watersheds. In this project, Stroud Center scientists apply a novel combination of approaches to monitor the flux and transformations of PN. The goal is to produce a comprehensive model for PN fate and transport in watersheds, especially in agroecosystems subject to climate variability.
