A11D:
Impacts of Land Cover, Land Use, and Agricultural Changes on Atmospheric Composition and Climate Posters

Submit an Abstract to this Session Please know the abstract submission deadline has passed. There are no exceptions to this deadline and no new abstracts can be submitted.
You can still search the program to see your colleague�s abstract submissions as well as the sessions submitted for the 2016 Fall Meeting. The final program will be released in early October.


Session ID#: 13019

Session Description:
Changes in the natural land cover and anthropogenic land use, including trends in agricultural production, have significant impacts on atmospheric composition, with ramifications for both regional air quality and global climate change. This session focuses on modeling and field research that probes into how terrestrial processes and human perturbations of them affect atmospheric composition, including possible feedbacks on ecosystems and agriculture. Topics may include but are not limited to: natural and agricultural fires; soil and vegetation changes under climate change, CO2 and nitrogen fertilization; pollutant-vegetation interactions; agricultural expansion and deforestation; conventional and sustainable agricultural practices; and the impacts of the above on atmospheric composition, air quality and climate from preindustrial times to the present day and into the next century. An emphasis on the implications for sustainable land and agricultural management especially in the developing world is particularly encouraged.
