NGEE-Tropics @ AGU 2022
Talks, Posters, Sessions by NGEE-Tropics team members
For the seventh year in a row, NGEE-Tropics is hosting the AGU session on "Tropical Forests Under a Changing Environment." Organized by Yanlei Feng (Carnegie Institute for Science), Lin Meng (Vanderbilt University), and Robinson Negrón-Juárez (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory). Tropical forests constitute the most biologically diverse terrestrial ecosystems that affect the Earth’s system dynamics by exerting a critical role in the global cycling of water, energy, carbon, trace gases and organic compounds. This session will focus on research in tropical forests using ground-based results (observational measurements and manipulation experiments), remote sensing and modeling.
Invited speakers are Nadja Rüger (German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research) and Kolby Jardine (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory).
Important note: All times are listed in Central Standard Time (CST), local time for this year's AGU Fall Meeting held in Chicago.
We have been allocated one oral session, one poster session, and one online poster discussion that will take place at the times below.
B52C - Tropical Forests Under a Changing Environment I Oral - Friday, 16 December 2022, 09:00 - 10:30 CST, McCormick Place - S501a (South, Level 5)
