Themed session: The 2016 AMS Annual Meeting Theme is entitled 'Observations Lead the Way'. This theme recognizes that many of our scientific advances in atmospheric and related sciences are founded on collection and analysis of new, innovative observations. In keeping with this theme a special session entitled "Innovative Water Cycle Observations" is being coordinated to highlight emerging observational capabilities making their way into hydrometeorological practice. Contributions from those conducting innovative measurements of terrestrial hydrologic variable such as soil moisture, snowpack, runoff, groundwater, streamflow, inundation and others are sought. Also encouraged are submissions describing new and planned instrumentation networks that stem either from recent field campaigns or new operational networks as such networks provide a backbone for advances predictive sciences.
