Advances in Ecohydrology: Quantifying the Influence of Land-Use/Land-Cover Change on Hydrology and Climate
Session ID#: 249323
Session Description:
Land-use and land-cover change (LULC) can range from shifts in vegetation communities and agricultural practices to faster transitions in land management. These changes can modulate ecohydrological processes over multiple timescales. In the shorter term, abrupt changes in irrigation, deforestation, and land management can affect flooding, drought events, and heatwaves via shifts in water cycle dynamics. Over longer timescales, gradual changes such as evolving cropping patterns, afforestation, and shifts in vegetation, can fundamentally alter water availability, carbon fluxes, and nutrient cycling over decades. This session invites presentations that leverage geospatial techniques—including remote sensing, machine learning, isotopic tracing, or modeling to capture key ecohydrological impacts over time. Topics of interest include (i) detection and attribution of LULC shifts, (ii) quantification of extreme event frequency and severity in response to vegetation and agricultural dynamics, (iii) long-term trends in groundwater and surface water interactions, and (iv) uncertainty analyses associated with dataset selection and modeling
