RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT PLANNING
2015-2021: NORTH WEST TRANSITIONAL
AND COASTAL WATERS WORKSHOP
Zaragoza, Spain
Environment Centre, Lancaster Univeristy
This conference is organised by UN-Water Decade Programme on
Advocacy and Communication (UNW-DPAC). Participants from

post-2015 agenda. The Conference will deal with some of the
main implementation challenges related to the five main targets
recommended by the UN-Water synthesis document on a Global
Goal for Water “Securing sustainable water for all”.
A key issue in the North West is high/increasing levels of
phytoplankton and dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) in the
transitional and coastal waters that enter the Irish Sea. As part
of the consultation on the draft River Basin Management Plan
(RBMP) the Environment Agency is holding this workshop with
three main aims: to present the issues with Phytoplankton and
DIN reported in the draft RBMP; to discuss the issues with a
wide variety of individuals and groups, to help better understand
what might be driving nutrient inputs and cycling and what
the consequences might be; to seek views and suggestions on
potential measures and actions for the 2015-2021 RBMP and in
the longer term.

Conference in April 2014, it was recognised that significant
additional benefits could be realised in the water sector by
applying BIM – Building Information Modelling – to the whole
life of an asset. This 2015 conference will explore how the water
sector is using BIM and what still needs to be done and will look at
the benefits of ALIM– Asset Lifecycle Information Management –
and its implementation. It will also ask if and how BIM and ALIM

Since the establishment of the IWA Asia Pacific Regional
Grouping (IWA-ASPIRE) in 2004, it has played an important
role in promoting communications and collaborations within
the Asia-Pacific region. With the main theme of “Sustainable
Water Environment and Water Use”, this conference will provide
a platform to discuss the complex and diversified situation of
water and environment in China, and in the Asia Pacific Region
as well.
This biennial event organised by the International Water
Association focuses on the development and delivery of water
and sanitation solutions in the developing countries. With its
focus on solutions, the Development Congress aims to change
the conventional narrative for water resource management
and water and sanitation services in low and middle income
countries by focusing not on the challenges, but rather on the
opportunities for transformational change.

theoretical, and computational tools in the field of fluvial
hydraulics. Participants will consider how these tools can be used
to expand our understanding and capacity to predict flow and
the associated fluid-driven ecological processes, anthropogenic
influences (e.g., heat, dissolved and suspended organic/inorganic
material), sediment transport, and morphodynamic processes.
The main conference sponsor is the International Association of
Hydraulic Research (IAHR).

Stuttgart, Germany
The International Symposium on River Sedimentation is
organised by the University of Stuttgart and will provide a forum
for scientists, engineers and policy-makers to share information,
exchange ideas and collaborate in the field of erosion and
sedimentation processes. Themes include: sediment sources;
sediment transport in rivers and lakes; geomorphology
meets ecology; sedimentation processes; erosion processes;
morphology and water quality; how to address sediment
dynamics better; innovative management strategies; social,
economic and political aspects of sediment management.
