Call for Abstracts: AGU Session H120 Resilience, Vulnerability, and Restoration of Watersheds
Watersheds around the world are increasingly threatened by global change
(land-use change, climate change, invasive species) with consequences
for nature and humans. This session invites contributions in watershed
science that provide insight into the impacts of global change on
watersheds, including the resilience and vulnerability of the water
cycle, carbon cycle, and related ecosystem services across scales.
Of
particular interest: conceptual and regional analyses of nature-based
solutions through physical, economic, and social lenses. Studies using
ground and areal observations and/or traditional and emerging models are
welcome. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Hydrology in a changing climate and its impact on biodiversity and people
- Adaptation to / mitigation of climate change on water yield and quality, carbon storage, and other ecosystem services
- Decision frameworks that impact watershed management
- Convergence research integrating social-ecological systems to inform equitable policies, practices, outcomes, and evaluation
Invited Speaker: Roger Bales (UC Merced)
Conveners: Safeeq Khan (UC Merced), Benis Egoh (UC Irvine), Angela Rigden (Boston Univ. / UC Irvine)
Abstract deadline: 5 August 2026, 23:59 EDT / 03:59 UTC
