Invitation to EGU-GA-SSS11.8: Handling Variability and Mapping in Landscape Processes

[Pásztor László]

Dear Colleagues,

 

Apologies for cross-postings.

The next EGU General Assembly will be held in Vienna from 8 to 13 April 2018.

We, as conveners, would like to invite you to submit abstracts for the session: SSS11.8: Handling Variability and Mapping in Landscape processes.

(http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2018/session/27083)

 

“ Environmental models require soils spatial information, as they are an important factor in modifying earth's surface fluxes. Spatial representation (maps) of separate soil attributes (both laterally and vertically) and of soil-landscape processes are needed at a scale appropriate for environmental management. The challenge is to develop explicit, quantitative, and spatially realistic models of the soil-landscape continuum to be used as input in environmental models, such as hydrological, climate or vegetation productivity (crop models) while addressing the uncertainty in the soil layers and its impact in the environmental modelling. This session welcomes contributions that address the methods to create such information and a range of possible applications.”

The abstract submission deadline is                                             10th of January 2018

For scientists who wish to apply for financial support

(Early Career Scientist ECSTS and Established Scientist ESTS)

the deadline is                                                                                     1st of December 2017

For further information on the possibility of financial support, see: https://egu2018.eu/roland_schlich_travel_support.html

See the General Assembly websites for more information about the EGU meeting (https://egu2018.eu/home.html), and abstract submission (https://egu2018.eu/abstract_management/how_to_submit_an_abstract.html)

Looking forward to receiving your contributions.

Best wishes,
