River Flow 2024

River Flow 2024 features keynote lectures and contributed papers presented at the 12th International Conference on Fluvial Hydraulics, held from September 2nd to 6th, 2024, in Liverpool. River Flow 2024 provides an overview of the latest experimental, theoretical, and computational findings on fundamental river flow and transport processes, river morphology, and morphodynamics. It also addresses the impacts of hydraulic structures on flow regimes, river morphology, and ecology; sustainable river engineering practices, including stream restoration and re-naturalization; and the effects of climate change, including extreme flood events. Additionally, the conference covers topics such as sediment, pollutant, and microplastic dynamics in rivers; fluid mechanics, numerical modelling, and two-phase flow; monitoring techniques and artificial intelligence; and natural flood management, vegetation, wood, and river restoration. River Flow 2024 aims to present ongoing and the state-of-the-art in river research and engineering, targeting academics and practitioners in hydraulics, hydrology, and environmental engineering. Organized under the auspices of the Committee on Fluvial Hydraulics of the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR), the River Flow conference series has gained international recognition as one of the most reputable events in the fluvial hydraulics community, attracting a large and loyal audience of river researchers and engineers. Thanks to the Stephen E. Coleman Award for the best research paper from a young academic and for its mission focused towards promoting knowledge transfer and idea exchange, it has also become a point of reference for the early career researcher and younger academics, with the master classes at the centre of it. The 12th edition also featured the Networking and Mentoring Event: Embracing Gender Equity and Diversity to enable all the member of the community to maximise their opportunity withing the sector.
