Future generation hydrology
International Scientific Conference in memory of outstanding Russian hydrologist Yury Vinogradov

Saint Petersburg, October 13-19, 2025

Organizers
under the auspices of

Yury Vinogradov is one of the leading Russian scientists in the field of hydrology. He is author of more than 100 scientific papers including several fundamental monographs on mathematical modeling of hydrological processes, catastrophic hydrological phenomena (outburst floods and debris flows). He developed a series of modeling systems which describe the processes of river runoff formation, debris flow formation and movement, moraine lake outburst, erosion and pollution processes on the catchment area.
