The next International Groundwater Symposium organized by the International Association of Hydraulic Engineering and Research (IAHR) will be held in Istanbul Turkey from June 18-20, 2008. The purpose of the Symposium is to bring together researchers focused on fundamental laboratory-scale experimentation and mathematical modelling of flow and transport in natural subsurface systems with hydrogeologists, geologists and engineers working on field applications and groundwater management problems. The Symposium will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and expertise among the various research and applied groups, for better understanding of the complex, coupled and scale-dependent processes governing flow and transport in porous and fractured media. The interactions among the multi-disciplinary participants of the Symposium will also serve to recognize limitations of existing analysis approaches and help identify future research avenues.
