The critical zone is an interdisciplinary field of research exploring the interactions among the land surface, vegetation, and water bodies, and extends through the pedosphere, unsaturated vadose zone, and saturated groundwater zone.
1 Ιαν 2015 · The National Research Council (NRC, 2001, p. 2) defined the Critical Zone as “the heterogeneous, near surface environment in which complex interactions involving rock, soil, water, air and living organisms regulate the natural habitat and determine availability of life sustaining resources.
16 Μαρ 2017 · Critical zone science is a new paradigm focusing on integration of existing fields of natural sciences: a systems approach needed to understand the three-dimensional complex linkages involving physical, chemical, and biological processes at the Earth’s surface.
1 Ιουν 2023 · The Critical Zone originally designated Earth’s life-supporting terrestrial surface. • Now CZ has many meanings—a potential source of confusion for field-based science. • The meanings can be differentiated into: ontological, epistemic, and anthropocenic. • The CZ’s physical extent should change with new knowledge about human impact. •
30 Ιουλ 2019 · Via this theoretical framework, Critical Zone scientists can arrive at a foundation that supports robust study into the interactions between Critical Zone rates and processes with changes to ecological communities and the confounding effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbance.
1 Δεκ 2021 · Geological hazards (Geohazards) refer to natural disasters that are caused by geodynamic activity or abnormal changes in the geological environment, which typically include internal earth processes (e.g., earthquakes, volcanic activity, and emissions) and related geophysical processes (e.g., landslides, debris flows, rockfalls, and avalanches) (...
