Making Groundwater in the Danube Basin Visible. Call for abstracts has now been extended until 5 May 2022. Conference topics are:
– Roles of groundwater in SDGs
– Transboundary aquifers in the Danube region
– Hydrogeology in the Sava basin
– Role of engineering hydrogeology in development of society
– Karst hydrogeology of the Danube region
– Water – chemistry – heat
– Open hydrogeology – any other topic related to hydrogeology is welcomed
Three field trips will be organised to present the diversity of hydrogeology in the Alpine-Dinaric-Pannonian area.

T130. Coastal and Marine Hydrogeology in an Age of Rising Seas: From the Shore to the Oceanic Ridge
Hydrogeology. Submit abstract by 19 July 2022:
This session aims to showcase theoretical and applied modeling and field studies in coastal and offshore settings around the world that consider seawater intrusion, inland flooding and hydrology, interactions with infrastructure, feedbacks with geology and ecology, tidal effects, benthic exchange, saltmarsh hydrology, and the identification of relevant parameters, boundary conditions, modeling strategies, and data collection and analysis approaches. We welcome local case studies that review broader sea level rise issues, studies that cover sea-level-rise-induced hydrological phenomena, their impacts, and methodologies for their study, studies that explore surface water/groundwater exchange, and studies that address biogeochemical implications associated with these mechanisms. There is a corresponding need for students and researchers trained in the issues and science relevant to coastal hydrogeology. Thus, we welcome contributions that address the state of and outlook for worldwide graduate and undergraduate education in coastal hydrogeology.
Organised by Geological Society of America.

Ineson Lecture 2022
Coastal aquifers. The IAH-GB Chapter, together with the Hydrogeology group of the Geological Society London will be hosting this year’s 2022 Ineson Lecture. This year the theme is Coastal Aquifers.
In recognition of his extensive research and publications in this area, Professor Jimmy Jiao of Hong Kong University is invited to be the keynote speaker.
The keynote lecture will be supported by a range of speakers and poster presentations. The theme of Coastal hydrogeology covers a wide range of issues, such as, resources and coastal aquifer management, saline intrusion, climate change & sea level rise, land reclamation, hydrogeology of small islands, palaeo-hydrology, offshore groundwater reserves, to more technical topics such as modelling, hydrochemistry, etc.
Price: TBD
Organised by IAH GB chapter and the Hydrogeological Group of the Geological Society.
21-23 Nov 2022 – Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre
Australasian Groundwater Conference 2021
Science, Resilience and Adaptation. (POSTPONED TO 2022 OWING TO PANDEMIC) Groundwater is increasingly recognised as a vital global resource, supporting healthy people, economies and environments. AGC2021 will be hosted by the International Association of Hydrogeologists at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, Monday 21 to Wednesday 23 November 2022. The Conference promises to attract a large number of delegates and organisations representing industry, consulting, government and academia, making it the premier groundwater industry conference in the Australasian region. This years’ conference theme is Science, Resilience and Adaptation, topics that have been well and truly at the fore over the past 12 to 18 months.
23-25 Nov 2022 – Albacete (Spain)
Annual Iberian Groundwater Meeting
Annual meeting. The purpose of this congress is to bring together groundwater professionals of the Iberian Peninsula in order to share knowledge and experiences. In this sense, the call is open to consultants, drillers, academics, students and, in general, to all those who orient their activity to hydrogeology. Official languages are Spanish and Portuguese.
Price: € 350 – 500
Organised by Spanish Chapter IAH.
7-8 Dec 2022 – Paris
UN-Water Summit on Groundwater 2022
The UN-Water Summit on Groundwater 2022 aims to bring attention to groundwater at the highest international level.
Held in December 2022, the Summit will use the UN World Water Development Report 2022 as a baseline and the SDG 6 Global Acceleration Framework to define actions towards more responsible and sustainable use and protection of this vital natural resource. The Summit will unify the statements from all major water-related events in 2021 and 2022 into one comprehensive groundwater message for the UN 2023 Water Conference.
The hybrid event, based in Paris, will be from 7 December 2022 to 8 December 2022. More details will be available soon.
Organised by UN Water.
