contents This paper studies a nonzero-sum stochastic differential game in the context of shared spatial-domain pollution control. The pollution dynamics are governed by a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) driven by a Brownian sheet, capturing the stochastic nature of environmental fluctuations. Two players, representing different regions, aim to minimize their respective cost functionals, which balance pollution penalties with the cost of implementing control strategies. The nonzero-sum framework reflects the interdependent yet conflicting objectives of the players, where both cooperation and competition influence the outcomes. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for Nash equilibrium strategies, using a maximum principle approach. This approach involves the introduction of a new pair of adjoint variables, (L_1, L_2), which do not appear in a corresponding formulation with the classical (1-parameter) Brownian motion. Finally, we apply our results to two case studies in pollution control, demonstrating how spatial and stochastic dynamics shape the equilibrium strategies.
