Trainers
Dr Gregory L. Morris has over 40 years of consulting experience in over 20 countries addressing a wide variety of water resource issues, with particular focus on fluvial hydraulics and sedimentation. He has been instrumental in recognizing the need for sustainable engineering and has focused extensive professional effort in this field. As a practicing engineer, he has led the design of intakes, reservoirs and other fluvial structures that minimize sedimentation problems, in addition to the preparation of numerous consultancy investigations. He is lead author of Reservoir Sedimentation Handbook, now available in PDF format at www.reservoirsedimentation.com
Dr George Annandale has over 40 years of experience as a civil engineer specializing in water resources engineering, fluvial hydraulics, design and engineering; reservoir and water supply management; and hydrology and hydraulics. He has published numerous peer-reviewed papers and is author, co-author and contributing author to seven books on sedimentation and scour. He is known for his expertise in reservoir sedimentation management, having authored one of the first books on this topic.
Dr Zhaoyin Wang is a Professor in the School of Civil Engineering, Tsinghua University, China. He is a leader in the field of erosion and sedimentation in watersheds, rivers, reservoirs and deltas. Currently, Prof. Wang serves as Chairman of the Advisory council of the International Research and Training Center on Erosion and Sedimentation under the auspices of UNESCO and Vice President of the World Association of Sedimentation and Erosion Research.
