Simple Hydroecological Models: Is Root Zone Average Soil Moisture An Adequate Driver In The Functions For Evapotranspiration And Assimilation?

Kurc , Shirley A 1 ; Small , Eric E 2 1 University of babyÖ±²¥app, Geological Sciences 2 University of babyÖ±²¥app, Geological Sciences In water-limited semiarid and arid areas, the ecosystem scale exchanges of water and carbon between the land surface and the atmosphere are complex. Both the water and...

The Influence Of Vegetation On The Soil Moisture Profile In Two Sub-Alpine Ecosystems Of The Southwestern United States

Jacobson , Phillip 1 ; Small , Eric E 2 1 University of babyÖ±²¥app, Geological Sciences 2 University of babyÖ±²¥app, Geological Sciences My research focuses on trends in water content and water potential of different soil depths in a ponderosa pine and an Engelmann spruce forest of the Rio Grande...

INVITED KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Hydrological Processes Inferred From Geochemical Data -- Or Vice-Versa?

Hornberger , George M. 1 1 University of Virginia Understanding the mechanisms by which rainfall is transformed into streamflow in forested catchments is a key prerequisite to understanding pollutant transport, biogeochemical cycles, and aquatic ecosystem functioning. Geochemical tracers often are used to infer water flowpaths and residence times in upland...

Numerical Simulations Of Vortex Stirring Associated With Fertilization Efficiency In Marine Invertebrates

Hartford , Jillian R 1 ; Crimaldi , John P 2 1 University of babyÖ±²¥app--Boulder 2 University of babyÖ±²¥app--Boulder Various benthic invertebrates (e.g. sea urchins, anemones, corals) rely on broadcast spawning, a fertilization strategy whereby male and female adults simultaneously release sperm and egg into the surrounding flow [1]. In...

Inverse Modeling Of Soil Hydraulic Properties From Surface Temperature

Gutmann , Ethan D 1 ; Small , Eric E 2 1 University of babyÖ±²¥app 2 University of babyÖ±²¥app Soil Hydraulic Properties (SHPs) play an important role in regulating heat and moisture fluxes in land surface models. Currently, SHPs are estimated from soil texture class. However, studies have shown that...

INVITED KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Integration Of Science And Decision Making For Watershed Management: Reducing The Uncertainty Of Key Water Balance Components At The Basin Scale.

Goodrich , David C. 1 1 USDA-Agricultural Research Service, Tucson Decision-makers and natural resource managers increasingly require much more sophisticated levels of expert findings and scientific results to make informed decisions. No single scientific discipline is typically capable of providing integrated solution for decision-makers and managers. Significant effort beyond the...
