The symposium is being organized in continuity of the ongoing series of ICCE symposia. Recent symposia were held in Moscow (2004), Dundee (2006) and Christchurch (2008). The Warsaw ICCE'2010 Symposium will focus on both sediment quantity and quality in river systems, considering:
- The impact of climate and land use change on sediment dynamics,
- The wide ranging ecological, social and economic impacts of changing sediment dynamics,
- The need to refine sediment monitoring and modeling techniques, and
- The need to develop improved management strategies in catchments and river basins.
