Announcement of “Estuary Day Workshop: Morphodynamic equilibrium in tidal environments”
1. Introduction
The “Estuary Day” series of workshops started 4 years ago thanks to the effort of scientists from a variety of countries to exchange ideas in an informal but inspiring atmosphere so that more in-depth discussions and collaborations were possible. The core group promoting this initiative included scientists from Delft University of Technology, Deltares, UNESCO-IHE, University of Florida, HR Wallingford, University of Auckland and Hohai University. Each workshop deals with a specific topic and experts in that topic are invited to contribute. The "Estuary Day" workshop this year is organized by Hohai University (Nanjing, China) and supported by Jiangsu Provincial Society for Oceanology and Limnology, and Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Coast Ocean Resources Development and Environment Security. The main topic of this workshop is “Morphodynamic equilibrium in tidal environments”.
