About this Research Topic
The main aim of this Research Topic is to advance the understanding of the process of coupled hydrologic, ecologic, and biogeochemical processes along various terrestrial-aquatic interfaces from the summit to sea, e.g., river corridors and coastal systems, through integrated modeling and monitoring efforts.
We invite observational, experimental, theoretical, analytical, numerical, and data-driven research and contributions that cover the following topics:
a) Understanding hydro-biogeochemical processes such as redox dynamics and biogeochemical transformations of carbon, nutrients, and metals occurring at the TAIs.
b) Addressing TAI biogeochemical heterogeneity and scaling.
c) Disentangling the interactions among hydrologic, ecologic, and biogeochemical processes.
d) Identifying and characterizing geomorphological features and processes affecting exchanges across TAIs.
e) Characterizing and quantifying the propagation of uncertainty from various sources to predictions of system functions.
This Research Topic is linked to the Topic Editors conference session at theGoldschmidt Conference 2022
