B41E:
Novel Approaches for Moving Beyond Plant Functional Types and Considering Future Vegetation Distributions I Posters
Session ID#: 10311
Session Description:
Earth's surface ecompasses a diverse mosaic of climates, all of which can be expected to change in the near future. Ecosystem responses to these shifts are crucial, both as an impact of and feedback to climate change, as well as in response to other factors such as land-use, changed nutrients, and elevated CO2. In some cases, ecosystems will be able to move geographically to accomodate these shifts, while in other cases will change in potentially unexpected ways to accommodate emerging novel climates. How should models--both conceptual and numerical--predict such changes in ecosystem distributions and properties? This session focuses on vegetation dynamics as the set of interactions that occur at spatial scales larger than leaves and timescales longer than annual, including: succession, geographic distribution changes, canopy structural dynamics, dispersal, competition, mortality, disturbance, and trait-based / adaptive dynamics.
