Understanding pulse dynamics is important to improving prediction in ecology. Climate change is altering hydrologic regimes, but the degree to which ecological responses are coupled to hydrologic pulses likely varies among ecosystems. A pulse is an abrupt change in system variables. Pulses may be isolated, when caused by single disturbances, or recur over variable time scales, including daily to seasonal.
This first of three workshops will introduce a synthetic approach to cross-site comparisons. An overview presentation will begin, followed by brainstorming, and end with three time-series model tutorials using existing R scripts and long-term data.
