The Congress will be held with the central theme “From Snow to Sea”, linking past with present and focusing attention on the importance of considering the integral water cycle to address present and future challenges.
Specific topics regarding River and Sediment Management, Extreme Events and Flood Management, Environmental Hydraulics and Industrial Flows, Coasts, Estuaries and Shelves, Urban Water Cycle, Water Resources Management and Climate Resilience, Computational and Experimental Methods and Hydro-Environment Engineering Culture will be covered in regular sessions. Besides, Special Sessions will be also organized in collaboration with worldwide experts on the different fields.
The Congress will provide a platform for science and practice to meet. A lively exhibition alongside the congress will present the latest developments in equipment, software and instrumentation as well as enhance relevant achievements from practice. Workshops and training events will be offered during the Congress.
