PRESENTATION
On behalf of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG/AIG) and its working group on smallCATCHMENTS, we are pleased to announce that the 2nd International Seminar on Small Catchments will be held in Palma, Mallorca, Spain in 2009 (Wednesday 6th May - Friday 8th May 2009). The Seminar will be organised by the University of the Balearic Islands.
The Seminar will explore our current knowledge of geomorphologic processes within small catchments, examining sediment delivery systems and human impacts as well as physical, chemical and biological interactions. Considering that 1st working meeting was based on measuring systems and monitoring methods of river catchments in various morphoclimatic zones, Mallorca’s Seminar aims to analyze sediment sources and transfers ranging spatially at small catchment scale and temporally from short-term event processes to longer term historical records. Therefore, the meeting will be devoted to the following topics:
- Sediment response to disturbances.
- Sediment sources and transfer to the fluvial system from small catchments: measurement techniques and modelling.
- Water and sediment management.
To register an Expression of Interest and ensure you receive the 2nd circular, please email smallcatchments@uibcongres.org
Kind regards,
