Members:
| Ulrich
Dämmgen [back]

Analysis
of atmospheric composition in particular of nitrogen and sulfur species,
and their deposition and emission fluxes above ecosystems. Co-chair
of the Agriculture and Nature Panel in the UNECE Task Force on Emission
Inventories and Projections; responsible for the German agricultural
emission inventory. |

Nicolas J.
Hutchings [back]
|
Modelling nitrogen flows in agriculture to quantify production and emissions to the environment. Co-chair of the Agriculture and Nature Panel in the UNECE Task Force on Emission Inventories and Projections; responsible for construction of the Danish ammonia emission inventory. |
Zbigniew Klimont
[back]
|
Working
in the emission inventory field at IIASA, participating in the development
of the UN/ECE Emission Inventory Guidebook and in the CORINAIR emission
inventory program, a task led by the European Environment Agency.
His recent tasks include the development of the transport sector
and the VOC emission-cost modules for the RAINS model.

Harry Luesink
[back]
|
System
manager and user of the Dutch Manure and Ammonia Model (MAM) at
the Agriculture Economics Research Institute. Doing research with
MAM to monitor and project ammonia emissions and the manure situation
for the Dutch government for more than twenty years. Since 1994
member of the working group who calculates every year the manure,
nitrogen and phosphate excretion per kind of animal for the Dutch
situation. |
Harald Menzi
[back]
|
Co-ordinator of the Swiss research on ammonia emissions (1991-2000). Head of projects for Swiss ammonia emission inventories and emission abatement potential. Chairman EAGER and Swiss representative to UN/ECE Ammonia Emissions Expert Group. Specialist on manure managment and environmental impacts of livestock production with activities in Switzerland, Asia and Latin America. |
Tom Misselbrook
[back]
|
Co-ordinator of UK research on ammonia emissions and impacts. Responsible for projects compiling the inventories of ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions from UK agriculture. Chairman of the RAMIRAN gaseous emissions working group. |
Gert Jan Monteny
[back]
|
Gert-Jan Monteny works within Wageningen University and Research Centre as leader of a research program on gaseous emissions from agriculture. This program is financed by the Dutch ministry of agriculture, nature and food quality, and is a part of a large R&D cluster on manure and nutrient losses. His role in EAGER is to coordinate the Dutch input, as well as communication of results from the research program, including data on emission measurements on housing systems, storages, and slurry application. |
Beat Reidy
[back]
|
Responsible for the calculation of the Swiss ammonia emission inventory and the assessment of the national ammonia abatement potential. Modeling (Model DYNAMO) and assessment of ammonia losses on the farm and regional scale. Analysis of the historical development of agricultural ammonia emissions since 1850. Involved in different projects focusing on the environmental impacts of intensive agriculture with respect to nitrogen losses. |
Lena Rodhe
[back]
|
Research activites focus on manure handling with emphasis on spreading, ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions, economics and handling systems. Presently engaged in projects concerning shallow injection in grassland. |
Frits K. van
Evert [back]
|
Modeling of nutrient dynamics in farming systems, especially dairy farms. Emission of ammonia and other forms of nitrogen loss from the farming system impose a burden on the environment and represent lost production potential. The mission of my group is to develop sustainable and profitable dairy farming systems. We use the model FARMMIN 1) to assess the current situation, 2) to explore the impact of proposed legislation, and 2) to evaluate innovative scenarios. |
| Jim
Webb [back]
|
Chairman of the UN/ECE Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution Ammonia Expert Group. Research activities focus on nitrogen cycling in agricultural systems and and soil sustainability. |
