Integrating wetlands and floodplains to characterize watershed ecohydrological processes
Session ID#: 80647
Session Description:
Floodplains and wetlands influence watershed-scale hydrological, biogeochemical, and ecological processes. Their water storage-and-release functions mediate spatio-temporal hydrologic dynamics and encourage the retention and transformation of nutrients and other contaminants across the landscape. Improved integration of floodplains and wetlands for characterizing watershed-scale ecohydrological processes at multiple spatial scales stem from recent advancements in characterizing the landscape using remotely sensed big data and computational techniques. This session aims to showcase these diverse approaches. We particularly welcome findings derived from field-to-watershed experimental studies, statistical and process-based modeling, remote sensing and other geospatial analyses that offer emergent concepts of how floodplains and wetlands mediate watershed hydrological, biogeochemical, and ecological processes.
