Share your research with the Rhine basin community

We invite contributions for oral presentations and posters on water resilience in the Rhine basin and its tributaries: from fundamental process research to applied studies, models and tools, and policy analysis. Research on other river basins with clear lessons for the Rhine is also very welcome.

The scientific committee will evaluate submissions, decide upon acceptance and assign the contributions to individual sessions.
