Join us in kick-starting a community effort to develop syntheses for the Southwestern U.S. and Northwest Mexico region in light of projected climate changes. Regional water-limited ecosystems require a deeper understanding, and collaborative cross-border work between Mexico and the U.S. is crucial. During our recent discussion, we highlighted the importance of eddyflux sites (>40), remote sensing, and modeling for this project. We have agreed to work on coordinating proposals, workshops, and review articles aimed at advancing regional carbon cycling research in this area.

Southwestern U.S. and NW Mexico Regional Carbon Cycling Synthesis Kick-off toward building a community to develop syntheses for this region Rationale: Regional understanding in water-limited ecosystems lacking, area is projected to undergo relatively larger changes in climate, cross-border Mexico-U.S. work needs to happen We discussed potential eddyflux sites (> 40), remote sensing and modeling opportunities. Agreed to develop coordinating proposals, workshops, review articles.
