H23I:
The Generation and Function of Temporary streams 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#: 13483

Session Description:
Temporary (i.e. ephemeral and intermittent) streams play an important role in the transformation, retention, and transport of solutes, water, and materials in stream networks. This session seeks to bring together researchers who are studying where and how temporary streams form as well as the function they provide within the broader hydrologic and ecological landscape. We invite contributions that explore the seasonality of streamflow generation processes in these landscapes and the associated ecological and biogeochemical ramifications. Contributions that incorporate policy implications, remote sensing, geomorphic controls, and new tools and indicators for assessing the hydrological, chemical, and biological impact of temporary stream activation are strongly encouraged. We welcome submissions that address these themes in any climatic region or across any spatial or temporal scales.
