H34H:
Agrohydrology in a Changing World: From Global Processes to Local Outcomes I eLightning


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 45205

Session Description:
Remote sensing, in-field sensors, and integrated modeling provide more information about water resources than ever before; but it remains unclear how these technologies can be used to sustain water resources and supply ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes. This session seeks to explore how these data and tools can be used to improve our agrohydrological understanding and translate this understanding into sustainable, multifunctional landscapes.

We seek abstracts studying water quantity and/or water quality in agricultural landscapes and the urban-rural interface at domains ranging from subfield to global. Potential topics include (but are not limited to): (i) integrating datasets and tools to improve understanding of hydrological and hydrogeological processes; (ii) relationships between agrohydrology and other earth systems, particularly global climate change; (iii) hydrologic thresholds, regime shifts, and alternative stable states; (iv) managing streamflow diversions, groundwater pumping, and designer flows; and (v) translating scientific understanding into effective management practices and social policy.
