If there are any folks working on carbon cycling in inland freshwater systems or on aquatic-terrestrial coupling, please considering submitting an abstract to our AGU session:
B009: Carbon in the Warming Water: Role of Inland Aquatic Ecosystems in Regional and Global Carbon Cycling There is growing recognition that inland waters are a major component of regional and global carbon budgets. Experimental, observational, theoretical, and model investigations are revealing new perspectives on rates and fate of carbon transport, linkages of terrestrial-aquatic processes, and influence of climatic variability on nutrient cycling. This session solicits abstracts that advance our understanding of these processes across aquatic ecosystems, including lakes, streams, and wetlands, using novel approaches at multiple scales, such as over-water eddy covariance and in-water high resolution observations, physical-biological limnological modeling, and cross-site ecological synthesis. http://fallmeeting.agu.org/2012/session-search/single/carbon-in-the-warming-water-role-of-inland-aquatic-ecosystems-in-regional-and-global-carbon-cycling/ Sincerely, Ankur R Desai Associate Professor Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences Dept.
