Short summary
We studied nitrogen pollution in Taiwan's mountain forests to track how urban emissions reach and transform in remote areas. Isotope analysis and statistical modeling revealed that combustion sources contributed 50–83 % of ammonia, while nitrate forms continuously from urban to rural sampling sites. The findings show that persistent urban pollution strongly impacts mountain ecosystems, offering key insights for air quality management.
