Frontiers in Ecohydrology

Session ID#: 119056

Session Description:
Ecohydrology is a multi-faceted discipline that focuses on the interactions and feedback between water and ecosystems across space and time. As a result of its inherent interdisciplinary nature, ecohydrology is a field that is constantly in flux, requiring the adaptation of novel methods to advance our understanding. This session, sponsored by the Ecohydrology Technical Committee, is intended to highlight new areas of research and science that tackle “big ideas” in the field of ecohydrology. We encourage the submissions of abstracts that study mutual interactions between the hydrologic cycle and ecosystems. We welcome a wide range of studies including but not limited to those employing field methods, modeling, laboratory or mesocosm experiments, remote sensing, data mining, model-data fusion, or theory development. We are especially interested in work that couples ecological and hydrological systems across spatial and temporal scales.
