The next AGU Fall Meeting, to be held in San Francisco (USA) during December 9-13, 2013, will host a session framed within the context of Panta Rhei. The session, titled "H21N. Hydrological Change and Water Systems: Feedbacks, Prediction, and Experimental Management", is convened by Nandita Basu (University of Waterloo), Alberto Montanari (University of Bologna), Maria Cristina Bruno and Theodore Melis (USGS Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center). The oral presentations will take place on Tuesday, December 10, during the all day in room 3002 (Moscone West). Posters will be presented in the morning of Wednesday, December 11, Hall A-C (Moscone South).

The session has gained an exciting interest. 54 contributions were submitted that are focusing on the Panta Rhei themes. The symposium will be an exciting opportunity to get started with the activities of Panta Rhei and to bridge with existing initiatives and researches.

A visionary session on Panta Rhei will also be organised during the EGU meeting to be held in Vienna in April 2014. More details will be posted later.

I am looking forward to possibly seeing you in San Francisco!
Alberto Montanari

Panta Rhei has been launched during the IAHS General Assembly held in Gotheborg during July 22-26, 2013. Panta Rhei officially took off on Wednesday, July 24th, when I gave the start-up talk. The powerpoint presentation of the talk can be downloaded here. The video of the talk is available here.

Next steps
Target Leaders for Panta Rhei will be identified soon, on invitation by the IAHS bureau.
A call for research themes (RT) and working groups (WG) has been launched to the IAHS Commissions, and proposals are being received. A public call for RT and WG will also be issued soon on the web site. Please stay tuned and visit us! All the proposals that will be received for RT and WG will be reviewed by the Panta Rhei Chair and Target Leaders in order to ensure coherence and cooperation, and will be finally approved by the IAHS bureau.
