各位学者、老师和同学，

    第33届国际水利学大会（33rd IAHR CONGRESS）将于2009年8月11－14日在加拿大温哥华召开。

    大会由美国ASCE环境水资源协会（EWRI-ASCE）, 美国ASCE海岸海港与河流协会（COPRI-ASCE）, 英属哥伦比亚大学（UBC）, 和加拿大土木工程师协会（CSCE）共同举办，并且同2009加拿大水利技术研讨会同时进行。

    本届会议主题是 “Water Engineering for a Sustainable Environment”。

    有６个议题，重点是环境方面，详见下文。

    日前，由中国水科院、四川大学、清华大学和香港大学联合申办2013年第35届国际水利学大会取得成功。为了开好2013年第35届IAHR大会，IAHR中国分会希望中国广大水利工作者、老师和学生积极参会，踊跃投稿。摘要截稿日期为2008年12月1日，请在网上递交摘要。
