EGU24 – Assessing and monitoring geomorphic processes across scales

The European Geosciences Union (EGU) annually hosts one of the world’s largest conferences for scientists, the EGU General Assembly. This year, from April 14–19 in Vienna, the event brought together over 21,000 participants.

Our RISED laboratory contributed to organizing the session “Assessing and Monitoring Geomorphic Processes Across Scales.” Led by Assoc. Prof. Gordon Gilja, the session featured 30 presentations from 18 countries, fostering the exchange of knowledge on sediment transport and particle movement in fluvial and coastal environments investigated experimentally, numerically and analytically. We contributed to the session with two papers where students showcased their facultative research work:
