From 2007-09-25 to 2007-09-28 Venue: Faculty of Forestry, belgrade University; Kneza Višeslava 1, 11030 Belgrade, Serbia Summary: The significance of sediment issues for river basin management is widely recognized. It is well-known that sediment problems are strongly related to erosion, sediment yield and torrent processes in the upland areas of river basins. Thus, erosion and torrent control should be an important element of river basin management plans. The appropriate approach to this problem should be based on the assessment of the land degradation processes in the river basin, and their monitoring and modeling. The design of erosion and torrent control works should include risk analysis of all mountain hazards, and encompass the different measures of soil conservation, sediment management and ecological engineering. In the view of the complexity of erosion and torrent control issues, river basin management plans should take into consideration the social and economic aspects of these activities Organizers: Faculty of Forestry, Belgrade University - marking 100 years of experience with erosion and torrent control in Serbia Organised jointly with: Sponsor: Public Water Management Company SRBIJAVODE Co-Sponsors: Contact Name: Prof. Dr. Nada Dragović Faculty of Forestry, University of Belgrade URL: |
