Poster #21-75 Integrated Imaging of Above and Below Ground Properties and their Interactions

Watershed systems are characterized by extreme hydrological and pedological heterogeneity that directly impacts the local biotic activity, making plant communities extremely heterogeneous. The ability to characterize such heterogeneity and quantify its coupling with topographic and soil properties is extremely important to predict watershed functioning and responses to hydrological perturbations, such as droughts, floods, and early snowmelt.
