Advances in understanding impacts of land use and land cover change in a changing climate using Earth system records and models

Session ID#: 73951

Session Description:
Earth system models are effective tools to assess LULCC impacts in a changing climate by incorporating a broad range of relevant processes, such as the transitions between natural and managed land use types, urbanization, and ecosystem dynamics following disturbances. While they have paved the way toward elucidating the role of LULCC in modulating biogeophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks in the Earth system, they are yet to be improved by integrating with observations and data-assimilated Earth system records. We seek contributions on, but not limited to, quantifying the effects of LULCC on water/carbon/nutrient cycling, the water-food-energy dynamics, and regional and the global climate using Earth system records and/or models. Studies on developing Earth system records and projections (e.g., the Land Use Model Intercomparison Project), high-resolution modeling of individual processes, validation and verification tools, and coupling frameworks that advance scientific understanding and improve fidelity of ESMs in quantifying LULCC effects, are strongly encouraged.
