THE ORGANIZERS
The Hydrology Conference 2010 is organized by Elsevier and is supported by UNESCO and Elsevier's Journal of Hydrology.
This major international conference will target the developing interdisciplinary science themes in the interface between hydrology and other scientific disciplines, including climate change, biology, chemistry and social sciences. These subjects are of particular relevance as population increases and a changing climate bring new pressures on hydrological systems around the world.
Why you should attend:
* Hear about the latest developments in the interface between hydrology and other scientific discipline * Get inspired on long term research goals * Meet with top specialists in the field of Hydrology
