322 Hydropedology - Coupling Hydrology and Pedology Across Landscapes: II

Hydropedology is the study of linkages between pedology and hydrology within a landscape context. The session will focus on how soil architecture and the distribution of soils over the landscape influence hydrologic processes (and associated biogeochemical and ecological dynamics) across spatio-temporal scales. Presentations will also address how landscape water (and the associated transport of energy, sediment, chemicals, and biomaterials) influence soil formation and function.
