The Young Hydrologic Society 

The Young Hydrologic Society (YHS) is a bottom-up initiative to stimulate the interaction and active participation of young hydrologists within the hydrological community.

Founded in October 2012 the YHS is currently run by a team of enthusiastic MSc’s, PhD’s and post-doc’s from several universities across Europe. Based on its first public meeting at the 2013 European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly in Vienna the YHS established the following goals:

  • Connect young hydrologists early in their career,
  • Organize events to bring together young hydrologists,
  • Provide information for young hydrologists,
  • Create awareness of current and future research topics within hydrology,
  • Reform hydrology towards more involvement of early career hydrologists.
