Session Description:
Water-stressed environments include naturally occurring drylands and any ecosystem experiencing droughts. Drylands cover more than 40% of the terrestrial land surface and home to at least 2 billion people. The provisioning of ecosystem services in drylands is governed by water availability. Thus water is fundamental to sustain ecosystem functions in water-stressed environments, where a tight coupling exists between water availability, ecosystem productivity, surface energy balance, and biogeochemical cycles. Both physical (e.g., CO2, temperature) and anthropogenic factors (e.g. land use, energy development) are increasingly affecting the dryland water dynamics. We welcome submissions focusing on the ecohydrological processes/feedbacks in water-stressed environments and their implications on a broad range of issues including ecosystem change, land use change, water resources, desertification, and food-energy-water nexus.
