Abstract
⺠Headwaters draining eroded South Pennine (UK) peatlands are nitrogen saturated. ⺠Ammonium & nitrate leaching arises from aeration due to lower water tables. ⺠Nitrate deposition equals export during storms; ammonium export exceeds input. ⺠Ammonia input from high atmospheric loading & mineralisation of organic nitrogen. ⺠Downstream nitrogen trends indicate rapid transformation of ammonium into nitrate.
