Welcome to RCEM2009
The International Association on Hydraulic Engineering and Research (IARH) and its Latin American Division (LAD), in association with the Water Science and Engineering Faculty of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL), are proud to announce the 6th Symposium on River, Coastal and Estuarine Morhodynamics, RCEM 2009.
This highly successful series of conferences has played a key role in promoting an interdisciplinary approach to river and coastal problems. The conference is unique in this emphasis on the intersection between basic research and engineering applications, blending aspects from fundamentals in fluid mechanics to laboratory experiments and field studies in river and coastal morphodynamics.
The conference provides a stimulating forum for communication among applied mathematicians, engineers, geologists, ecologists, geomorphologists, biologists, computer scientists and water managers involved in the study of Earth surface processes.
The meeting will take place in the backyard of the Paraná River, one of the largest rivers in the world, providing a unique opportunity for observation of flow, sedimentation, ecology, biology and morphology in a "natural laboratory".
The conference will be held at the Administration Building ("Rectorado") of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL), from September 21st to 25th, 2009, at Santa Fe City, Argentina.
