Programme

Short courses

Four short courses will be held on Wednesday, July 21st, 2025. The intended audience includes PhD students, early-career researchers, and scientists attracted in areas beyond their field of study. The following themes will be proposed:(i) Use of the palaeopedology to study ancient alluvial succession(ii) Quantifying the fluvial sedimentology

Scientific Sessions

The Executive Committee will prepare a call for proposal to organise and manage various sessions within these general themes:(i) Fluvial processes, bedforms and deposits (ii) Fluvial succession, stratigraphic and palaeoenvironmental meaning (iii) Palaeosols(iv) Deltas(v) Sedimentological data quantification(vi) Rivers' evolution and management(vii) Rivers' history and interaction with human communities(viii) Palaeobiology of the rivers

The remaining day of the congress (Wednesday, July 21st, 2025) will be dedicated to workshops on the following tentative themes: (i) Sequence stratigraphy in fluvial succession (ii) Climatic and time proxies in palaeosols and deposits

Workshops

Plenary lecture

Here there is a likely scenario of four plenary lectures: (i) Climate and rivers (ii) Fluvial lithofacies and processes can be quantified? (iii) Sequence stratigraphy in alluvial plain (iv) Palaeosol and fluvial sedimentology
