Introducing the paradigm of Critical Zone science to agrohydrology
Session ID#: 158446
Session Description:
The increasing breadth of water-based research reflects the central importance of agricultural and environmental science while highlighting the hydrologic subdisciplines' fractured nature. This becomes crucial for agrohydrology, with significant hydrological processes and management in agricultural production and food security. However, the development of agrohydrologic theory and integrated approaches are somewhat limited, e.g., linkages between soil health and hydrogeologic setting. The emerging concept of the Critical Zone (CZ) science can be introduced to boost the integration of agrohydrologic theories and approaches. Here, we solicit contributions to pose a knowledge gap of CZ science in agrohydrology, given the significant role of soil moisture, a center part of the CZ, in agroecosystem management. We welcome contributions that investigate hydrological processes altering the agricultural water allocations and efficiency, geophysical techniques on precision agriculture, water quantity and quality issues in diversified farm systems, groundwater's roles interacting with farmland ecosystems and climate change, and why cropland soil health varies within and among farm fields in different hydroclimatic regions worldwide.
