This intensive, interactive 2-day course cover 2D modelling. Case studies will also include dam breach inundation mapping with an introduction to dam breach parameters. The course may be extended to cover 1D modelling as well, pending interest levels. Please indicate in your comments whether you would be interested in 1D, 2D, or coupled 1D/2D modelling.

The course will run from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. Following is an outline of the course proceedings:
