Pre-symposium Short-courses
In tune with the RCEM goals, the Water Science and Engineering Faculty (FICH) is proud to announce the realization of several fast-paced, intensive courses in topics related to field and laboratory measurements, river, coastal, and landscape evolution from September 14th to 19th, 2009, in Santa Fe, Argentina.
These short courses, to be delivered by renowned specialists, are intended for graduate students and young researchers as they will provide comprehensive training on practical aspects that normally require the use of field and laboratory techniques, or theoretical analysis and computational modeling as well. They offer a unique opportunity for the participants to interact with senior scientists and meet peers. Courses offered are:
A. | Fluvial Geomorphology with Emphasis on Large Alluvial Systems, |
E Latrubese, & C Ramonell (a1, a2, a3, a4, a5 ) | |
B. | Modeling of River Meandering and Streambank Erosion at Multiple |
Scales, J Abad, & E Langendoen | |
C. | Earth-surface Dynamic Modeling and Model Coupling, J Syvitski, |
& E Hutton | |
D. | Characteristics of Morphology and Sediment Transport in Lowland |
Sand-bed Rivers, G Parker | |
E. | Hydroacoustic Laboratory and Field Measurements, K Oberg, |
D Parsons, & C García, (e1) | |
F. | Sediment-Turbulent Flow Interactions, |
C Villaret, A Davies, & K El Kadi Abderrezzak |
