EOSRAM
Definition
- This project addresses the question of how extensive land use change or more subtle regional climate variations modify the natural functioning and structure of the Amazonian ecosystems, from routing of water and its chemical load through precipitation and drainage systems back to the atmosphere and the oceans. The biogeochemical and hydrological processes of this and other continental-scale tropical regions may function in fundamentally different ways than the better-known temperate or boreal regions of the world. The focus of this project is to model, within the context of land-cover changes, the transport and distribution of water, sediment and bioactive chemicals along the Amazon valley network and the transfer of biogenic gases between the land surface and the atmosphere along with mobilization of particulate matter through the river system to the ocean.
