We invite submissions for the following session that will be convened at the 2015 American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in San Francisco (http://fallmeeting.agu.org/2015/).
The abstract submission site for the meeting is now open. Please pass along this announcement to anyone that might be interested in participating in this session. Session Title: Stream Hydrology, Stream Temperature, Water Quality, and Aquatic Habitats Under Climatic Variability and Change Session ID#: 7975 Session Description: Changes in temperature and precipitation are expected to have dramatic effects on the hydrologic characteristics of freshwater systems, resulting in an increased frequency of droughts and/or floods, as well as impacting stream temperature, water quality, nutrient transport, ecosystem function, and the physical structure of aquatic habitats. To better predict hydrologic responses and to prepare for managing water resources in a changing environment, it is critical to understand the linkages between climate, stream flow, water temperature and quality, and biological systems. This session will examine the impacts of historical or projected climate variability and change on the hydrologic, physical, and biological aspects of lotic systems. We welcome observational and modeling studies that examine the interactions of hydrology and relevant physical and chemical processes at all spatial and temporal scales.
