IAHR Global Water Security Working Group 3rd Webinar

The Fundamental Issues of Global Water Security: Linking Water Security to Nature

IAHR Global Water Security Working Group Webinar is a serial of events being planned by the IAHR Global Water Security Working Group. This webinar focuses on some of these issues, including: adaptive, real-time, self-learning technologies, validation of hydrodynamics and ecological processes in aquatic systems, including interactions between the ecology, biology and hydrodynamics, particularly in lakes, wetlands and river basin systems. This webinar will focus on framing high-level adaptive, real-time monitoring and nature-based solutions to the challenges and opportunities of Global Water Security, bringing together well-known experts in their fields from the hydro-environmental science and engineering community within IAHR and beyond. Future webinars will focus more on policy and climate change issues and SDG challenges associated with Global Water Security issues.

This webinar will be featuring Prof. Jorg Imberger, University College London, UK and University of Miami, USA as the keynote lecturer, as well as two invited speakers: Prof. Jay Lund from University of California – Davis, and Dr. Ellis Penning from Deltares, the Netherlands, and will be co-chaired by former IAHR President Prof. Roger Falconer and former IAHR Vice President Prof. Arthur Mynett.
