ABSTRACT
Investigations on atmospheric deposition (AD) and water chemistry along a 35 km stretch of Ganga River indicated that although NP stoichiometry of AD did not change, there were over 1.4-2.0 fold increase in AD-NO3â», AD-NH4⺠and AD-PO4³â» overtime. Concentration of dissolved inorganic-N (DIN) in river showed significant positive correlations with AD-NO3â» and runoff DIN. Similarly, dissolved reactive-P (DRP) in river showed significant positive correlation with AD-PO4³â» and runoff DRP. The study shows that AD has become an important source of N and P input to Ganga River.
