The water cycle from land to the ocean involves complex dynamics of rivers

and buoyancy driven flows through estuaries and along coasts. Recent

progress in satellite observations and numerical models are beginning to

illuminate how this water cycle occurs on the global scale and the regional

scale. We welcome studies that investigate various phenomena related to the

freshwater cycle from land to the ocean such as surface runoff, river flow

variability, estuarine circulation including delta and salt marsh, and

coastal river plumes based on numerical, observational, or theoretical

studies. This session will be jointly held with the international session
