The 8th International Meuse Symposium will take place on Monday, October 17th, 2022 in Liège (Belgium).
For this year’s edition we look for presentations on the following topics:
- Hydrology of the Meuse catchment
- Weather extremes: floods and droughts
- Climate adaptation
- Water usage and stakeholders
- Water quality and ecology
The program will also include a general session for various topics and address the joint modelling exercise on comparison of hydrological modelling approaches, which has been a recurring topic since the first edition of the symposium in 2013.
Would you like to give a presentation during this symposium? Please contact Bernhard Becker (Bernhard.Becker@deltares.nl) from the organizing committeeWeather extremes are the topic of the two morning sessions, with one session for droughts and floods, respectively. Here, both the July 2021 flood and the droughts from recent years will be reflected by the speakers. The first afternoon session is dedicated to sediment and plastic transport. The last session is entitled with "cross border catchments and international collaboration". This topic is also the subject of the concluding preliminary discussion.
