Dear colleagues, We are inviting abstract submissions for a session during the upcoming AGU (American Geophysical Union;www.agu.org) Fall Meeting on "Phosphorus Cycling in Terrestrial Ecosystems" (session B60)
Session Abstract: Phosphorus (P) commonly limits terrestrial productivity. This limitation would be even more important in regions where anthropogenic deposits reduce nitrogen limitation. In this context, the implementation of processes governing soil P bioavailability into biogeochemical models may be necessary to predict the response of terrestrial ecosystems to global change. This session will address 1) the processes controlling soil P availability, 2) the interactions between the C, N and P cycles in the soil-plant-microorganism system and 3) the integration of soil P processes into ecosystem models. We welcome contributions from both experimental and modelling studies and encourage research focusing on the interaction between P cycling and climate change. The conference is held in San Francisco on 5-9 December. Abstract submission is open now (http://agu-fm11.abstractcentral.com/) and closes on August 4th at 23:59 EDT. Full details of the meeting can be found here: http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/ We are looking forward to meeting you in San Francisco. Feel free to forward on to any friends, colleagues, students, and other relevant people interested in this topic.
