Integrating hydrology, ecosystem dynamics, and biogeochemistry in complex landscapes

"Progress on landscape-level understanding of coupled water, carbon, and nitrogen budgets is limited by a lack of commitment to a rigorous development and application of synthetic techniques (e.g., strongly linked remote sensing studies, geographic information system applications, computer simulation modeling, and ecosystem experimentation) more than by basic site-level measurements alone. Possible research approaches that will contribute to new use of ecosystem knowledge in a landscape and regional context were considered by this Dahlem Workshop. The importance of conducting improved landscape and regional assessments of ecosystem function as input to global-scale efforts of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme is a major theme of this book."--BOOK JACKET.
