The 7th edition of the International Meuse Symposium will take place on Tuesday, 21st September 2021. It will be organized as online-conference.
We have collected interesting presentations for the 7th edition of the International Meuse Symposium. The talks will be organized in four sessions:
- General session - reflecting the 2021 floods
- Hydrology
- River morphology and water quality
- Management of river and river basin
- Discussion: towards a common research agenda for the Meuse - how does the 2021 flood change our way of thinking?
