Appendix 7
Detailed results for acidification and eutrophication
Introduction
The following results were provided by ITE, following analysis based on the outputs of the HARM model. The results are disaggregated by region and ecosystem type for acidification and eutrophication. Results are shown one scenario on each page. Ecosystem area and Exceedence area are both measured in ha.
