86. GCTE Focus 3 Soil Erosion Network
    Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems program to study and monitor soil erosion and to refine and adapt models for use in studies of environmental and climate change. Includes information about past conferences and links to related resources.  
    http://www.soilerosion.net/sen/
    
    Extractions: Activity 3.3 and other Soils Components Introduction and Rationale S oil erosion is a very widespread phenomenon, and is usually irreversible. Once the nutrient-rich surface soil has been lost, the ability to sustain plant growth is severely reduced, and increased runoff from the more impermeable subsoil results in a decrease in plant-available water. Furthermore, erosion brings various associated "off-site" problems, including reduced water quality from increased sediment loads and poorer air quality due to dust. T he severity, frequency and extent of erosion will be altered by changes in rainfall amount and intensity, and by changes in wind. Global change will thus amplify many current problems of soil erosion, and as certain soil thresholds are exceeded, potentially new and different problems could arise. It is therefore crucial to understand the potential impacts of global change on soils to allow the developments in predictive capability necessary to improve their management in the future. The GCTE Soil Erosion Network is dedicated to this goal, and forms a key component of GCTE's soil research.

    Extractions: CONTACT SEARCH AFFILIATES ... News/Events The MIT Center for Global Change Science (CGCS) addresses fundamental questions about the environment and climate processes with a multidisciplinary approach. The Center's goal is to improve the ability to accurately predict changes in the global environment. The CGCS was founded in January 1990, and in 2006 became an independent center in the School of Science The CGCS seeks to better understand the natural mechanisms in ocean, atmosphere and land systems that together control the Earth's climate, and to apply improved knowledge to problems of predicting climate changes. The Center utilizes theory, observations, and numerical models to investigate climate phenomena, the linkages among them, and their potential feedbacks in a changing climate. The Center builds on existing programs of research and education in the Schools of Science and Engineering at MIT. The CGCS is not a degree-granting academic unit. A student enrolled in any department may become involved, which normally occurs through participation in research that is coordinated by a faculty advisor who is affiliated with the CGCS.

    Extractions: The Climate System Research Center is a research facility of the University of Massachusetts. Our research is focused on the climate system, climatic variability and global change issues, from contemporary climate variations, their causes and consequences, to paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental changes. Several members of the Climate System Research Center were contributors to reports issued by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in recent years. The reports earned the panel the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize, shared with Al Gore, a leading environmentalist and former U.S. vice president.
