Land–Atmosphere Interactions of the Tibetan Plateau and Their Impacts on Weather and Climate II Posters

Session ID#: 47388

Session Description:
Thermodynamic and mechanical influences of the elevated Tibetan Plateau play an important role in regional and global extreme weather and climate events. Integrated observations and modeling are two components critical for advancing our understanding of the role of land-atmosphere interactions over the Tibetan Plateau. This session provides a forum to discuss recent progress in establishing observation networks in Tibet and data applications, and in studying physical processes involved in land-atmosphere interactions. It focuses on process studies of land-surface and hydrology, boundary layer, cloud-precipitation, and troposphere-stratosphere exchange of mass and chemical composition. It encourages contributions making novel utilization of multi-scale interdisciplinary modeling and analysis to investigate effects of land-atmosphere interactions on weather and climate. Similar studies in other regions with complex terrains are encouraged. This session also welcomes papers on the assessment of changes in Tibetan surfaces characteristics (snow, glacier, soil moisture, ecosystem, etc) in the context of climate variability.
