The American Geophysical Union (AGU) is accepting abstracts for the 2024 AGU Fall Meeting. This hybrid meeting will take place 9-13 December 2024 in Washington, D.C. and online.
The following sessions are accepting abstracts:
SESSION EP006: Arctic Coastal Dynamics - What are the emerging frontiers?
Conveners: Emily Eidam, Julia Guimond, Madison Smith, and Benjamin M. Jones
Arctic coastal zones and continental shelves are critical transitions between terrestrial and marine processes. Warming air and water temperatures, sea-ice losses, changing wave and storm climates, sea-level rise, permafrost thaw, and hydrogeological activation are having cascading effects on subaerial to subaqueous parts of these Arctic systems. Rapid changes occurring farther offshore (related to ocean circulation, sea ice, and biology) are also driving and amplifying changes across Arctic coastal zones and continental shelf transitions, with implications for physical dynamics and ecosystems. This session invites submissions that will improve our understanding of these connected systems on local, regional, and pan-Arctic scales. Conveners encourage submissions that focus on physical, chemical, and biological processes along the onshore-to-offshore continuum using field-based, remote sensing, and modeling studies. Conveners further encourage representation from the diverse suite of disciplines interested in understanding how changes in the coastal zone are impacting social-environmental-technical systems and built environments in the Arctic.

SESSION B072: Multi-Modal Remote Sensing of Land-Ocean Phenomena in the Arctic
Conveners: Wesley J. Moses, Trina Merrick, and Peter Nelson
The Arctic ecosystem is undergoing significant physical and ecological changes in landscape dynamics, permafrost disturbances, thermokarst replacing ice-wedge polygons, shoreline erosion, melt pond formation and evolution, increased sediment and dissolved matter transport, shifts in phytoplankton species composition, and sea ice dynamics connected to terrestrial processes. The availability of high-resolution data from optical sensors such as the Landsat series, EnMAP, PRISMA, Sentinel-2, and WorldView-2/3, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data from commercial sensors such as ICEYE and Capella, and the emergence of autonomous sensing systems provide unique opportunities to monitor key biogeochemical processes at the terrestrial-aquatic interfaces. Conveners invite presentations that demonstrate the use of remote sensing techniques to monitor these and other processes in the Arctic. Studies that demonstrate synergistic use of remote sensing data from multiple measurement modalities, including optical, SAR, and lidar sensors from in situ, airborne, and spaceborne platforms, are particularly encouraged.
