POSTPONED – International Water Conference June 4, 2020

The International Water Conference June 4, 2020 at Bolmen Research Station is postponed due to the prevailing circumstances in the world.

We intend to arrange the conference next year.

It´s our pleasure to announce that the first International Water Conference will be held at the Bolmen Research Station, Tiraholm, Sweden – June 4th, 2020.
The conference aim is to shed light on the research on how brownification and climate change affect the water quality and ecosystems in lakes, with examples from, among others, lake Bolmen. What will happen in the future? How does land use affect lakes?
The conference will also highlight the opportunities at Bolmen Research Station both locally, regionally and nationally, as well as provide a unique opportunity to experience the beautiful surroundings of Lake Bolmen!

Yours sincerely,
Linda Parkefelt, Research Leader, Bolmen Research Station
