[A-CG40] Coastal Ecosystems - 1. Water Cycle and Land-Ocean Interactions

Thu. May 25, 2023 10:45 AM - 12:00 PM 102 (International Conference Hall, Makuhari Messe)

convener:Masahiko Fujii(Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, The University of Tokyo), Tomohiro Komorita(Faculty of Environmental and Symbiotic Sciences, Prefectural University of Kumamoto), Makoto Yamada(Faculty of Economics, Ryukoku University), Ryo Sugimoto(Faculty of Marine Biosciences, Fukui Prefectural University), Chairperson:Masahiko Fujii(Faculty of Environmental Earth Science), Ryo Sugimoto(Faculty of Marine Biosciences, Fukui Prefectural University)

Substances from land which are brought by river and/or submarine groundwater
discharge are important for the process of biological production in coastal areas. This
session focuses on land-ocean interactions through water cycle. The aim of this
session is to create interdisciplinary discussions on the research of connectivity of
ecosystems, water cycles in terrestrial and coastal areas, fishery resources and
biodiversity. Comprehensive discussion on the mechanisms that promote productivity
and biodiversity in coastal ecosystems will be made from the viewpoint of land-ocean
interactions. Presentations on water-material cycle in terrestrial and coastal areas,
fishery resources, biodiversity and connectivity of the ecosystems are encouraged. A
companion session proposed as "Coastal Ecosystems-2. Coral reefs, seagrass
meadows, and mangroves" focuses on benthic communities in shallow-water
ecosystems such as coral reefs, seagrass meadows and mangroves and is dedicated
to promote researches on comprehensive assessment and monitoring of ecosystem
functions and development of effective means for conservation and restoration. Main
focuses of these two sessions are different. However, there are much of information
that covers both sessions. Scientists who work on the related field will be able to
obtain information and share them with other scientists if they attend to both of
these sessions.
