AGU Chapman Conference on Synthesizing Empirical Results to Improve Predictions of Post-wildfire Runoff and Erosion Responses

该奖项将为2013年8月在科罗拉多州埃斯蒂斯公园举行的AGU查普曼野火径流和侵蚀会议提供部分支持。会议将汇集多学科的研究人员，学生和资深科学家，在野火后和侵蚀反应以及火灾行为，中尺度气象学，土壤科学，水文学，地貌学和建模方面的工作。会议将分为五个部分：野火后响应领域；降水;渗透;径流;土壤和沉积物的侵蚀和运输。会议的成果包括一份会前审查报告，报告了目前野火后社区面临的优先研究问题；受邀和提交论文的AGU专著；以及各专题会议提出的优先研究问题解决方案的期刊出版物。会议将有来自学生和早期职业研究人员的强烈参与。

This award will provide partial support for an AGU Chapman Conference on post-wildfire runoff and erosion to be held in Estes Park, Colorado in August, 2013. The conference will bring together a multidisciplinary group of researchers, students through senior scientists, working in post-wildfire and erosion response as well as fire-behavior, meso-scale meteorology, soil science, hydrology, geomorphology, and modeling. The conference will have five sessions: post-wildfire response domains; precipitation; infiltration; runoff; soil and sediment erosion and transport. Outcomes from the conference include a pre-conference review paper of current priority research issues facing the post-wildfire community; an AGU monograph of invited and submitted papers; and journal publications on proposed solutions for priority research issues of each topic session. The conference will have strong participation from students and early career researchers.
