High-resolution inventories for Reactive Nitrogen Emissions from China's livestock during 2005-2022

China is a global hotspot for reactive nitrogen (N_r) emissions driven by its large livestock sector, which contribute to air pollution, climate change, and biodiversity losses. Despite their importance, current emission inventory development efforts often address singular N_r species, lacking a comprehensive presentation of all N_r species together and their interconnected features. This may jeopardize China's achievements of carbon neutrality and clean air. In this study, we developed a high-resolution (0.1° × 0.1°) inventory of monthly N_r emissions from livestock manure in China for 23 livestock types from 2005 to 2022. Based on a unified dataset, our inventory provides detailed estimates of multiple N_r emissions from livestock, including ammonia, nitrogen oxides, and nitrous oxide. The inventory can serve as a valuable resource for atmospheric modelling and support integrated nitrogen management strategies in response to China's evolving agricultural landscape, facilitating future decision-making to tackle environmental challenges associated with the agriculture sector.
