This is a small informal meeting focused around several full-length talks, workshops and a lot of unstructured conversation, as a contrast to the frenzy of 15-minute talks and countless posters at EGU. The overall theme is "Hydrological Scaling Revisited".

Confirmed speakers are Sally Thompson, Harrie-Jan Hendricks Franssen and Günter Blöschl. Please find here the programme, opens an external URL in a new window. finden sie hier. Updates will be posted at www.waterresources.at, opens an external URL in a new window, under News.

The symposium has been modelled after the Berkeley Meeting Jim Kirchner has been organising in the past years, and we have held similar meetings after EGU since 2010.

Doors will open at 8:30 AM with coffee, pastries and greetings. The meeting will start at 8:45, featuring ~35 minute talks and extended discussion, with breaks for lunch and snacks. The afternoon session will include small group discussion sessions to allow more in-depth discussion of hydrological scaling. The day will finish off with an exchange of group findings, followed by drinks and dinner.

Logistics

The Meeting will be held in the Prechtlsaal of Vienna University of Technology, in central Vienna, at Karlsplatz. Free food and drinks will be served.

We look forward to seeing you in Vienna!
