B33F:
Remote Sensing to Support Investigations in Plant-Climate Interactions II 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#: 13640

Session Description:
The response of terrestrial vegetation to climate change is an active area of research, and includes changes in species distributions, phenology, physiology, and carbon, water, and energy cycling. While remote sensing provides important descriptions of vegetation state and dynamics, it is also a key dataset in environmental and ecological analyses of plant-climate interactions. This session will attract papers that seek to utilize terrestrial remote sensing observations as primary datasets in analyses of plant-climate interactions, rather than focusing on the development of novel remote sensing products.
