ECOLOG community, As the deadline for AGU abstract submissions draws near (Aug. 6), I wanted to bring to your attention the 12th convening of a interdiscplinary session on nitrogen dynamics. Invited speakers this year include Jennifer Murphy (U. Toronto), David Fowler (CEH-Edinburgh), Emily Fischer (Colorado State U.) and Troy Baisden (GNS Science).
The Bio-atmospheric N cycle: N emissions, transformations, deposition, and terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem impacts Session ID#: 3527 Session Description: Biogenic and anthropogenic emissions of reactive nitrogen (Nr) are transported, chemically transformed, and deposited on land and waters, altering structure and function of ecosystems and degrading environmental quality. Estimating atmospheric N emissions and deposition, and evaluating ecosystem responses require a diverse array of measurements and models that link processes at multiple scales. We seek presentations on physical, chemical, biological, and anthropogenic processes that drive local, regional and global nitrogen exchange, impacts on ecosystems, carbon uptake, nitrogen export, biodiversity, human health, and policy implications and responses. Conveners: Stuart B Weiss, Creekside Center for Earth Observation Emily Elliott, University of Pittsburgh Meredith Hastings, Brown University Rebecca Ryals, Brown University Best, Emily Elliott
