Riverine N2O emission estimates from headwater streams (a, c, and e) and high-order rivers (b, d, and f) for the 1900s, 1960s, and 2000s. The right panel shows the latitudinal distribution of riverine N2O emissions with the uncertainty range as the standard deviation (shaded areas).

Body
Modeled estimates of annual NO2 emissions for two sets of global rivers and streams covering years 1900-2016 available.
