Dear Ecologgers, There's a few more hours to submit your work to this exciting session. H105: The Ongoing Sensor Revolution in the Hydrologic Sciences: Quantifying Hot Spots and Hot Moments in Catchment Systems
Session ID#: 8626 Measurements of water chemical and physical properties are increasingly available at the spatial and temporal resolution of flow and climate data. These high resolution solute signals are enabling a revolution in the hydrologic sciences by providing refined inferences about known processes, uncovering new processes, and improving our understanding of source, storage, residence times, and flowpath dynamics. They also highlight the rich heterogeneity of solute production, transport, and retention in space (e.g., hot moments) and time (e.g., hot spots) that arise as stochastic drivers are coupled to geomorphic, hydrological, and biogeochemical variation. Improving our understanding of heterogeneity in landscape hydrology and solute dynamics will require new technological tools (e.g., sensors), new analytical tools (e.g., models), and new theory. This session welcomes submissions that describe how new field or analytical methods, new analytical approaches, and new models can help locate, quantify, or predict hot spots and hot moments in catchment systems.
