H43M:
Climate Variability and Change and Subsurface Hydrology: Impacts, Mitigating Measures, and Predictions I

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#: 16963

Session Description:
The direct influence of climate change on precipitation and surface water, as well as indirect effects of climate-induced human activity, will have profound impacts on subsurface hydrology. This session seeks presentations that advance our understanding of the effects of climate change on (i) subsurface hydrology, such as hydraulic properties in the vadose zone and groundwater recharge; (ii) fate and transport of carbon, nutrients, and contaminants in the subsurface; and (iii) innovative strategies to mitigate the direct and indirect climate-induce impacts (e.g. urban subsurface hydrology; innovative agricultural management practices). Laboratory and field data, as well as computational simulations, are all welcomed.
