Water–Soil–Vegetation Dynamic Nexuses and Equilibriums in Changing Climate II Posters
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 54235
Session Description:
Water-soil-vegetation dynamic nexuses affect, and are affected by, both human activity and climate change. For a given area, inappropriate land management practices can result in soil and vegetation degradation, which in turn will likely alter natural hydrologic processes, leading to more frequent and severe flooding and drought. In response, an altered hydrologic condition tends to prompt soil erosion by wind and water, which in turn can cause further vegetation degradation or even loss. Such nexuses will likely become more interwoven in changing climate because the non-stationary climate can further deteriorate the already-altered hydrologic condition. So far, our understanding is incomplete regarding how such nexuses maintain or break equilibriums between water, soil, and/or vegetation in terms of eco-environmental resilience. We cordially invite presentations of original experimental/modeling studies that address interrelations between hydrologic alteration and soil and/or vegetation with climate change as a possible additional factor in both natural/human impacted ecosystems.
