This symposium will bring together scientists and engineers representing environmental fluid mechanics, oceanography, atmospheric sciences, hydrology and hydraulic engineering that are active in the fields of free surface flows, shallow fluid flows and quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flows. In the context of shallow flows (i.e., the length scale and the Reynolds number of the flow in one direction are significantly smaller than the length scales and Reynolds numbers in the other two directions) the following topics will be considered:

1. Mean flow, turbulence properties, and coherent structures
2. Transport of momentum, heat, solutes, pollutants and sediment,
3. Wave and turbulence interaction,
4. Flow pattern and characteristics in mixing layers, jets and wakes,
5. Resistance at flow boundaries,
6. Scale separation and interaction between 2D large scales and 3D small scales
7. Analytical approaches (hydrodynamic stability),
8. Numerical simulations,
9. Laboratory and field experiments including remote sensing,
10. Applications in atmospheric, oceanic, channel flows and other quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flows.
