Catchment and Critical Zone Science – Understanding Ecosystems through Monitoring, Analysis, and Experimentation
Session ID#: 248985
Session Description:
Catchment, critical zone, and ecosystem studies are foundational to hydrological and biogeochemical process understanding. They include place-based studies with sustained monitoring that have shaped our understanding of fundamental processes and consequences of environmental change on ecosystems. They also inform environmental policy and lead to transformative ideas that advance science and benefit society. In this session we seek contributions that reveal new insights through observation, experimentation, or modeling, including studies that synthesize across sites and over time. We particularly encourage contributions from research programs that are crucial to scientific discovery, resource management, shaping policy, or promoting societal well-being.
