SUMMARY:48th IAH CONGRESS in Belgium on September 6th – 10th
DESCRIPTION:Dear Water Experts WELCOME TO BRUSSELS\, BELGIUM In September 2018\, in Daejeon\, South Korea\, the Council of the IAH decided to appoint the IAH Belgian National Chapter (the CBH-BCH) to organize the 48th International Congress of 2021. It’s a great honor\, a wonderful pleasure and an exciting challenge to organize such an event. So there we go The congress will be held in Brussels\, Belgium\, from September 6-10 September\, 2021\, in the very heart of the Belgian and European Capital. The IAH Belgian Chapter is honored to host and invite you to the 48th IAH Congress in Brussels\, Belgium in 2021. We our looking forward to be inspired by your contributions on the following topics: Groundwater/surface water interaction Hydrogeochemistry\, groundwater age tracing\, paleogroundwater and isotopes in hydrogeology Groundwater contamination Hydrogeophysics Groundwater and climate change Geothermal and hydro-energy Karst and fractured rock hydrogeology Managed aquifer recharge Mineral and thermal waters Regional groundwater systems and transboundary aquifers Coastal aquifers Urban groundwater Groundwater and ecosystems Advances in forward and inverse groundwater modeling and open source tools for computational subsurface hydrology Advances in experimental and field methods in hydrogeology and for understanding of the critical zone Groundwater governance\, policy and management Sustainable groundwater exploitation and well management

SUMMARY:Conference IAH entitled: Groundwater drought and abstraction in Europe
DESCRIPTION:Groundwater drought and abstraction in Europe: sustainability now and in the future? Conference given by Anne Van Loon\n\n\nIn this study\, we present the results of the analysis of groundwater droughts induced and modified by groundwater abstractioncompared to a near-natural baseline. We show that abstraction can lower groundwaterlevels to below drought thresholds in summers with high demand (during heatwaves)\, but these human-induced droughts are quickly alleviated in our wet NW European climate. However\, under climate change and increased water demand scenarios\, we might want toadopt a revised abstraction plan to prevent these human-induced groundwater droughts\, in order to minimise longer-term impacts on groundwater storage and alleviate potential delays in drought recovery.With a conceptual model\, we test under which conditions additional abstractions push the groundwater system into longer drought and how a short-term sustainable abstraction plan can prevent this. In the context of the European Groundwater Drought Initiative (GDI)\, we compare different climates and groundwater use and management scenarios in Europe. We conclude that for safeguarding Europe’s drinking water supply (c 65% from groundwater)\, management strategies need to consider short-term sustainability of groundwater abstraction to ensure future water availability.\n\nAprès la réunion\, un verre de l’amitié sera servi.\n\nPour l’organisation pratique de la réunion\, nous vous demandons de confirmer votre présence en remplissant ce formulaire avant le 10 janvier 2020: https://forms.gle/QDPEXVb5oacfhTD26\n\nSi vous désirez apporter un point à l’ordre du jour de l’AG\, vous avez la possibilité de le mentionner dans le formulaire.

SUMMARY:Symposium Mineral Extraction vs Ecology
DESCRIPTION:Symposium co-organised by Geologica Belgica and BLUG/UBLG on 24 November 2016 in Brussels\, Natural History Museum \nAfter a workshop organised 27 November 2015 and a series of excursions to different types of raw materials extraction conducted this year\, the ad-hoc working group observed that former or reclaimed mining sites regain valuable ecological functions and may even attain a higher level of biodiversity than the original lands before mining. Multiple former extraction sites are transformed into Natura 2000 or other protected sites\, or even are becoming new wilderness areas. The ad-hoc working group has concluded that mining and ecology should become allies and agreed to the organisation of a symposium\, with the intention to promote a better understanding of the mutual interests by the industry and the conservationists and at informing a wider audience.

SUMMARY:Mineral extraction vs Ecology: adversaries or allies ?
DESCRIPTION:As a first step\, BLUG/UBLG and Geologica Belgica invite you to participate in a brainstorming session with the purpose of defining the agenda for demonstrating the benefits of geodiversity for biodiversity to the public. The meeting will start with presentations on the clash of geo-bio paradigms\, success stories and failures of geo-bio cooperation to end with the creation of a working group and discussion on the next steps. \n
