[ECOLOG-L] AGU Session on Impacts of Extreme Climate Events and Disturbances on Carbon Dynamics
Hi All, I would like to bring our AGU session to your attention. Shuguang (Leo) Liu and I are convening a session on the impacts of extreme climate events (e.g., drought, heat waves, spring freeze) and disturbance (e.g., fire, hurricane, insect outbreaks, and harvesting) on carbon dynamics again at the AGU Fall Meeting (San Francisco, CA, Dec 3-7, 2012). Our session at the 2011 AGU meeting was very successful. If you have been recently conducting research on this topic, please consider to submit an abstract to our session. The abstract submission will close by August 8, 2012. Below is a brief description for our session: B031: Impacts of Extreme Climate Events and Disturbances on Carbon Dynamics Sponsor: Biogeosciences (B) Conveners: Jingfeng Xiao, Shuguang (Leo) Liu Extreme climate events (e.g., drought, heat and cold waves) and disturbances (e.g., fire, hurricane, and insect outbreaks) substantially affect carbon cycle processes. However, their impacts on terrestrial carbon dynamics over landscapes, regions, and continents are not well understood. We invite submissions that investigate and quantify the impacts of extreme climate events and disturbances on the terrestrial carbon dynamics over various spatial and temporal scales using observations (e.g., eddy covariance flux measurements, and national inventories), remote sensing, state-of-the-art modeling approaches (e.g., ecosystem models, upscaling methods), and model- data fusion techniques. Please feel free to contact me (j.x...@unh.edu) or Leo (s...@usgs.gov) if you have any questions and to forward this message to your colleagues, students, and post-docs who might be interested in contributing to this session. I look forward to seeing you at AGU.

Below is a brief description for our session: B37: Impacts of Extreme Climate Events and Disturbances on Carbon Dynamics Sponsor: Biogeosciences (B) Conveners: Jingfeng Xiao, Shuguang (Leo) Liu Description: Extreme climate events (e.g., drought, heat waves) and disturbances (e.g., harvesting, fire, hurricane, and insect outbreaks) substantially affect carbon cycle processes. However, their impacts on terrestrial carbon dynamics are not well understood and quantified. Accurate quantification of these impacts requires the use of ecological observations (e.g., eddy flux measurements), remotely-sensed data, modeling approaches (e.g., ecosystem modeling, upscaling methods), or the integration of these data and techniques. We invite submissions that explore the impacts of extreme climate events and disturbances on carbon dynamics over various spatial and temporal scales using observational, simulation, or integrated approaches.
