Session Title: Advances in transdisciplinary research on land-water-carbon-society interactions using modeling and field-based approaches

Climatic and human stressors are transforming the Critical Zone (CZ) through alteration of land, water, soil, and carbon processes. Therefore, there is a need to better understand key drivers of CZ transformations (e.g., deforestation, poor land management/abandonment, groundwater overexploitation, and permafrost degradation) and the implications on water/food security, ecosystem wellbeing, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This session aims to bring together transdisciplinary groups to discuss advances, challenges, and opportunities on local, regional, and global scale studies (modeling, experimental, or observational) on:

·       climatic and anthropogenic drivers of changes in land use, soils, carbon, and groundwater systems

·       Earth system and hydrological modeling considering human interventions (e.g., irrigation, groundwater depletion, climate impacts)

·       climate change and CZ ecosystem functioning

·       wetland conversion, permafrost degradation, and GHG emissions

We encourage studies that use transdisciplinary approaches to address topics above. Studies on new datasets (e.g., remote-sensing) and best-practices for data sharing among transdisciplinary groups are also welcome.
