Author: 系统管理员Source: Updated: 2011-09-06

Date:  Sept. 6-8, 2011

Venue : Beijing, China

Summary: The IAHR Subcommittee on River, Coastal and Estuarine Morphological processes (RCEM) held the first 6 of this successful series of conferences in Genova, Italy; Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan; Barcelona, Spain; UIUC, Illinois, USA; Enschede, the Netherlands; and Santa Fe City, Argentina. The language of the conference is English. The IAHR Symposia on River, Coastal and Estuarine Morphodynamics provide a forum for the scientists and river engineers to share ideas and research results on river, coastal and estuarine morphodynamics. Tsinghua University will host the 7th IAHR Symposium on River, coastal and estuarine morphodynamics in the year 2011. The central theme of this conference is “Impacts of Hydro-Projects on River, Coastal and Estuarine Processes”.

Organizer: Tsinghua University, Beijing, China

Themes: The scope of the conference will be broad, covering all issues related to river, coastal and estuarine morphological processes. Specific themes include, but are not limited to:

Processes 

Ÿ  Sediment yield and sediment transport

Ÿ  Incised rivers

Ÿ  Alluvial rivers

Ÿ  Deltas, estuaries, bays

Ÿ  Responses of river and estuaries to floods and storms

Ÿ  Environmental and ecological aspects of morphological processes

Field investigations, experiments, and simulations

Ÿ  Impacts of catastrophic events on morphological processes

Ÿ  Landslide and debris flow

Ÿ  Turbulent flow in rivers and coastal areas

Ÿ  Modeling of catchment and fluvial processes

Man-nature interaction

Ÿ  Impacts of large hydraulic structures on catchment, fluvial and coastal processes

Ÿ  Disturbance of stream-lake systems and its environmental and ecological impacts

Ÿ  Sedimentation processes in large reservoirs

Ÿ  River engineering and restoration, habitat protection, environmental flows

Focuses

Ÿ  River confluences, tributaries and distributaries

Ÿ  Bedforms, bars and braiding

Ÿ  River bends and meandering, scouring and bank erosion

Ÿ  Turbidity currents and submarine morphodynamics

Ÿ  Tidal flats, costal and shelf bedforms
