Résumé

While the Haber-Bosch process for N-fixation has enabled a steady food supply for half of humanity, substantial use of synthetic fertilizers has caused a radical unevenness in the global N-cycle. The resulting increases in nitrate production and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have contributed to eutrophication of both ground and surface waters, the growth of oxygen minimum zones in coastal regions, ozone depletion, and rising global temperatures.
