Second
announcement Workshop
topics Keeping
in mind aim of the INYS initiative participants
from three countries ( U.K., Slovak
Republic and Czech Republic) were selected in order to maximize the potential
for future international cooperation. The selection was based on a review of the
submitted abstracts and the following research areas were
selected for the workshop.

General remarks on preparation of presentations The
lecture room will have avalaible the visual equipment including data projector,
projection screen and notebook (with Linux, and Windows installed). It is
recommended to all those who wish
to give power point or other computer guided presentation that they bring their
files on floppy disk, CD/DVD or USB memory stick.
Regarding the level of presentations: We suggest presenting at a level which the majority of participants will understand. You should present the topic so that it can be understood by hydrologists who are not specialists in your particular field. This will make it easier to identify potential for collaboration. More detailed scientific discussion can be undertaken during the networking session.
