The main objective and vision of Africa Division is to bolster IAHR’s impact on the continent, by exploring and identifying the main water challenges, and expand the IAHR network, by attracting and engaging African institutes, universities, and professionals. As part of this vision, we will connect African scholars, professionals and institutions with worldwide organizations, and promote collaborations that will create solutions for the water security and climate change challenges and help meet net-zero and sustainability targets.

IAHR celebrated the World Water Day with a webinar to explore the just released 2022 UN report on groundwater. A keynote presentation by Richard (Rick) Connor, the Chief Editor of the UN World Water Development Report 2022, presented the highlights from the Report, how we can unlock the immense potential of groundwater and how we can protect it for tomorrow. Following that, experts from six continents shared their regional perspective on this important natural resource. Join the IAHR Technical Committee on Groundwater Hydraulics and Management.

On the International Women Day we recognised all our female IAHR members who are working in water, hydro-environmental sciences and their practical application. Some of these inspiring women are pictured here in their workspaces all around the world. We also acknowledge the IAHR task force on Strengthening Diversity and Gender Equity which encourages the participation of women in engineering & is actively striving to achieve a more balanced membership.

In order to apply for the 2022 John F. Kennedy Student Paper Competition students who submitted full papers to the 39th IAHR World Congress will need to apply using the registration form before 20 April 2022. In the case that papers are multi-authored, students will need to be first authors and for this they will be requested to present an authorship statement indicating the contribution of each of the authors.

Applicants represent a wide variety of regions, including 57 from the Asia Pacific region, 14 from Latin America, 23 from Europe, 6 from North America, 20 from Africa and 3 from the Middle East region. The distribution by themes is quite unbalanced, as 26 applicants have registered for the Experimental Data challenge, 36 for the Ecohydraulics challenge and 61 for the Fluvial Hydraulics challenge. In terms of gender distribution of the participants also nicely mirrors the gender distribution within the association: around 70% of registrants are men while 30% are women. By sector, research-based institutions are preponderant, with around 74% of the applicants coming from the academia, while 26% are non-academics.

#iahrJournals
IAHR journals take a step toward sustainability

Printed editions of the Journal of Hydraulic Research and the International Journal of River Basin Management will remove all plastic, including the laminated outside covers and the plastic packaging from the mailing of journals.
Since 2022 our journals´ subscribers will receive a "naked mailing" to avoid plastic packaging, which even being a biodegradable polywrap is not fully degradable and is not consistently or effectively recycled, and paper labels.
Copies will keep being delivered in good condition, otherwise, let us know.

This issue begins with a vision paper on the intriguing concept of time reversal (TR) of waves and its possible applications in the field of hydraulics, followed immediately by a research paper on the same topic. The remaining papers focus on a wide range of important theoretical and experimental contributions to classical as well as eco-hydraulics.

Issue 1 of JAWER, the first issue of 2022, as in previous editions combines papers from several different water-related fields highlighting the diversity of topics that JAWER publishes. Two papers talk about scour; the first one looks at bridge and pier safety in relation to scour and the second explores the time evolution of the scour induced by a ski jump. A third paper discusses rain harvesting in semi-arid areas of Northern Ethiopia, while the fourth examines how to assess the impact of land-use change on Sediment Delivery Ratio at the sub-basin scale using the SWAT model...

JRBM has reached a milestone with the publication of our latest issue. Issue 1 of Volume 20 has increased in size due to our backlog of excellent papers exploring the management of river basins. Over the last 20 years, JRBM has focussed on and intends to continue to focus on the publication of multi-disciplinary papers dealing with the many dimensions of basin management including a wide range of technical, social, and economic aspects. The breadth of these topics is illustrated by the papers in this issue; these cover the impact of ice on regulated rivers and reservoirs, surge waves in canyons... Read more

The Journal of Ecohydraulics, Vol.7 (1) was published as a special issue of “organism-scale interaction with hydraulic conditions” edited by Professors Heidi Nepf, Sara Puijalon, and Herve Capra. This special issue explores hydraulic conditions, such as velocity, turbulence, bed shear stress, etc. around two major themes: the response of these conditions to the introduction of aquatic plants, and how individual vertebrate and invertebrate organisms respond to hydraulic conditions as well.
