GC33A:
Forest Carbon and Water Dynamics Under Global Environmental Change: Patterns, Drivers, and Mechanisms I
Submit an Abstract to this Session
Session ID#: 59015
Session Description:
Forests play a major role in global carbon and water cycling, and land-atmosphere interactions. Global environmental change such as CO2 fertilization, drought, warming, precipitation variability, and disturbances can have a large influence on forest vegetation and soils and thus on energy and carbon and water fluxes across spatial and temporal scales. As global change is expected to accelerate in the future, vegetation is likely to be affected by large-scale tree mortality, shifts in species composition and changes in forest cover. Changes in soil chemistry and metabolic activity will influence microbial community composition with a likely strong feedback on forest vegetation. This session focuses on novel insights on patterns, drivers and mechanisms governing forest carbon and water dynamics. We welcome submissions on forest vegetation and soil microbial dynamics, and their impact on energy and carbon/water fluxes and climate, including observational, experimental and modeling approaches, and studies from local to global scale.
