🌊 IMRR UNESCO Chair & SIMR Webinar Series | April 2025 Session Recap We’re pleased to share the recording of the fifth session of the IMRR UNESCO Chair & SIMR Webinar Series, held on April 9, 2025. The session was chaired by Professor Qiuhua Liang.

👏 We are proud to see our research contributing to practical advances in flood risk management. Huge thanks to everyone involved!

📍 The model has been applied in the UK and internationally — including in China, Nepal, and Central Europe — demonstrating real-world impact in disaster risk reduction and climate resilience.

🎉 We are excited to share that our High-Performance Integrated Hydrodynamic Modelling System (HiPIMS) has been featured by the UK Environment Agency as a case study on gov.uk/government/cas…!

The presentation will feature a case study on how marsh-fronted seawalls serve as an effective hybrid solution for coastal protection, offering a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to traditional seawall heightening.

This webinar will explore predictive models for fluid motion interactions with flexible vegetation, discuss wave attenuation effects, and analyze the economic benefits of nature-based coastal defense solutions.
