About ShipNoDeff

ShipNODeff is a Research and Technological Development program for the estimation of the ship nitrogen emissions and their effects to the eutrophication of the Baltic Sea.

Background

The atmospheric deposition of nitrogen is found to have a major effect on the Baltic Sea ecosystem. About 25-30 % of the nitrogen entered the Baltic Sea as airborne input.

Objectives

The objectives of the ShipNODeff programme are to produce a best estimate of nitrogen emissions from shipping in collaboration with stakeholders.
