โ€œBedload sediment, transported throughout an alpine catchment by a flood, was remotely tracked in detail by analyzing the ground vibrations recorded by a network of 24 seismic sensorsโ€ฆ.

Flooding? Get out of the way of the river.

"Historic settlement patterns have pinched our rivers into these narrow corridors. Giving land back to the river means potentially abandoning entire neighborhoods and swaths of town centers."

In Vermont, a Push to Prevent Flooding or Get Out of the Way

An increase in extreme precipitation events has hit the tiny, mountainous state of Vermont especially hard. As disaster declarations mount, state officials and community groups are collaborating to restore floodplains, reduce runoff from slopes, and buy out vulnerable homes.

#AGU24 - get together with some other #catchment scientists. Each meeting there are three sessions bringing together #CriticalZone researchers from around the world. The conveners have been doing this for years.

Sessions start this morning at 8:30.

Catchment and Critical Zone Science: Understanding Ecosystems Through Monitoring, Analysis, and Experimentation I Oral

Catchment, critical zone, and ecosystem studies are foundational to hydrological and biogeochemical process understanding. They include place-based studies with sustained monitoring that have shaped our understanding of fundamental processes and consequences of environmental change on ecosystems. They also inform environmental policy and lead to transformative ideas that advance science and benefit society. In this session we seek contributions that reveal new insights through observation, experimentation, or modeling, including studies that synthesize across sites and over time. We particularly encourage contributions from research programs that are crucial to scientific discovery, resource management, shaping policy, or promoting societal well-being.
