Venue: Florence, Italy

Organizer: University of Florence and University of Padua

Sponsors: International Research and Training Center on Erosion and Sedimentation (IRTCES); World Association for Erosion and Sediment Research (WASER)

Co-sponsors: International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR)......(to be invited)

Secretariat: University of Florence, Italy
Permanent Secretariat: IRTCES 

Summary: The triennial International Symposium on River Sedimentation (ISRS) was initiated in 1980. Since its foundation, IRTCES has served as the permanent secretariat of ISRS. WASER was inaugurated at the 9th ISRS in 2004, and the ISRS has since become the official Symposium of WASER.     The objective of the ISRS is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, researchers and decision makers to exchange ideas, research results and technical advances, , and to share experience and information relating to the study of sediment and its management. 

Symposium Theme and Topics:

The theme of the symposium is
