The International Association for Sediment Water Science (IASWS) is a network of scientists interested in sediments and their interactions with water and biota in aquatic systems.
The association brings together scientists from various disciplines like earth scientists, biologists, chemists and environmental engineers whose interests pertain to sediment-water interactions in all aquatic systems.
A major feature on the IASWS calendar is the tri-annual International Symposium On The Interactions Between Sediments and Water, with the next symposium to be held from 30 June to 4th July 2025 at Le Touquet, France.
After the previous meetings, discussions between participants and board members convinced us of the relevance of combining the 'traditional' IASWS tri-annual meeting (talks & poster sessions) with an international Summer School, dedicated to young researchers (mainly PhD and graduate students, Post-Doc, junior scientists), whose objective would be to acquire some additional or complementary, background, and practical skills in this field of sediment-water interactions.
The international Sediment-Water Interactions Summer School will be held from 23 to 27 June 2025just the week before the 16th IASWS meeting. The number of attendees will be limited to 30 people, and a priority will be given for joint attendance for the Summer School + 16th IASWS symposium. At the end of the Summer School, a bus transfer to Le Touquet (about 45 minutes/ 40km South, where the 16th IASWS symposium takes place) is included.
Deadline for Abstract Submission & Application for the Summer School (see specific Section) : April 07th, 2025
