IAHR Global Water Security Working Group Webinar is a series of events being planned by the IAHR Global Water Security Working Group. This webinar focuses on some of these issues, including: adaptive, real-time, self-learning technologies, validation of hydrodynamics and ecological processes in aquatic systems, including interactions between the ecology, biology and hydrodynamics, particularly in lakes, wetlands and river basin systems. This webinar will focus on framing high-level adaptive, real-time monitoring and nature-based solutions to the challenges and opportunities of Global Water Security, bringing together well-known experts in their fields from the hydro-environmental science and engineering community within IAHR and beyond.
