AB: Soil is a critical link in the global
hydrologic cycle and a natural integrator of various processes in the earth's
critical zone. The earth's critical zone provides an appealing framework for
integrated studies of water with soil, rock, air, and biotic resources in the
earth's surface and near-surface environments. With emerging national and
international environmental monitoring networks designed to address big
science questions that are increasingly called for by funding agencies and
scientific consortia, the role of soils needs to be considered adequately in
many of these environmental monitoring networks. In particular, a large-scale
observing network for the earth's critical zone as a whole is needed. This
paper attempts to present a synthesized and comprehensive view of the soil's
role in the science and infrastructure initiatives of the Consortium of
Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Sciences, Inc. (CUAHSI). Based
on the 12 vision papers developed for the CHAUSI for advancing the hydrologic
science in the next decade, this paper explores how soil science and hydrology
can advance one another, and suggests effective means of promoting concerted
and synergistic efforts from soil scientists and hydrologists (along with
scientists from other related disciplines). Each of the 12 vision papers
includes the soil as an important component and recognizes various roles the
soil plays in the hydrologic cycle. It is likely that the CHAUSI's science
agenda can benefit from integrating the earth's critical zone concept and
utilizing fully synergistic contributions from soil science.
