From page 217...
... (1994) developed equations for predicting the production rate of ammonia in swine manure storage as a function of time and depth in the manure.

... in the water. The emission rate of ammonia from manure on the kth day can be calculated using the following mass-transfer equation, MNH3-N k = 86,400 Kit F [TANS, where M is g/m2, 86,400 is the number of seconds in a day, Kid is the mass transfer coefficient in meters per second, F is the fraction factor for free ammonia in total ammonia and has a value of 0-1, and [TANS is the concentration of total ammoniacal nitrogen in milligrams per liter after k days.

... k_~ + TMTAN,k /V. The mass-transfer coefficient KI is a function of manure temperature, air temperature, wind velocity, and relative humidity.
