Welcome
About the Conference
The International Conference on Scour and Erosion has become a respected event in the technical conference calendar for engineers, scientists, decision makers and administrators providing services in the areas of scour and erosion. Its importance and reputation was established by the technical successes of the first four conferences:
- College Station, Texas, USA(2002)
- Singapore (2004)
- Amsterdam, The Neterlands (2006)
- Tokyo, Japan (2008)
