The objective of this research is to delineate and quantify the physical interactions or linkages between atmospheric, terrestrial and aquatic systems in the Arctic. Hydrologic and meterologic data from the North Slope of Alaska will be synthesized and incorporated into a numerical model that describes pathways of mass and energy between systems. This modeling work will be augmented with field data on stream flow, nutrient movement and energy fluxes at system interfaces. The proposed models will offer new insights into land-surface feedback processes within the Arctic system.

这项研究的目的是描述和量化北极大气，地面和水生系统之间的物理相互作用或联系。来自阿拉斯加北坡的水文和计量学数据将合成并纳入描述系统之间质量和能量途径的数值模型。这项建模工作将通过有关流流，营养运动和系统界面的能量通量的现场数据进行增强。提出的模型将为北极系统内的土地表面反馈过程提供新的见解。
