Hydrogeoday
Hydrogeology dissemination. The Hydrogeoday is a day focussed to hydrogeology dissemination, held on the occasion of World Water Day (March 22) and promoted by the Spanish Chapter since 2017. Public Research Organizations, Universities and other organizations whose activities are related to groundwater also collaborate on it. This initiative consists of free walking itineraries, guided by hydrogeologists and open to all types of public, regardless of their knowledge in the field to be treated in each of the proposed activities. Last year the event was organized in 21 Spanish provinces and in Andorra, Chile and Guatemala. More than 1000 participants took part. This year the Hydrogeoday will be held between the 25th and 26th of March. There will be also a photo contest through the Spanish Chapter Twitter account.
Price: Free
Organised by Spanish Chapter.

24-25 Apr 2023 – San Antonio, Texas, USA
Managed Aquifer Recharge: Unleashing Resiliency, Protecting Groundwater Quality
MAR Regulatory Frameworks and Water Quality Drivers. This NGWA conference will provide a forum for sharing technical, regulatory, and institutional lessons from existing projects to develop successful recharge projects addressing water supply resilience and groundwater quality. Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is the purposeful recharge of water to aquifers for later recovery or other benefits. MAR includes various approaches including aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) and surface spreading. It is an increasingly important tool for mitigating the economic, environmental, and public health impacts of water shortages. MAR captures available water during wet periods, periods of low demand, or water that would otherwise be lost and intentionally moves this water underground for subsequent recovery or other benefit. While practiced for decades, MAR is of growing interest by many communities. A call for abstracts is in effect, with submissions due by January 15, 2023.
There will also be MAR workshops on April 23 and a MAR field trip on April 26.Price: $445 Members, $595 Nonmembers, $100 Students
Organised by National Ground Water Association.

15-19 May 2023 – Virtual
EEGS / AEG 2023 Virtual Symposium on “Life of Mine – Maintaining Sustainability Through Geoscience”
The Role of Geoscience in Mine Site Regulation, Running, Rehabilitation, Re-purposing, Retirement, and Reclamation. Tentative Planned Program - Seeking single and multi-disciplinary mining geoscience research and case study contributions within 6 themes (Call for Abstracts is now Open)
· Mine engineering, operation, monitoring and expansion,
· Environmental Concerns and permitting,
· Regulatory Water and soil management,
· Rehabilitation, re-purposing of historical mines (e.g., re-processing of mine wastes for critical minerals),
· Closure and reclamation planning and implementation, and
· Education Toward Future Mining Geoscience Practice.
Educational Day - Planning is underway for a schools-focused day to raise awareness to the new generation of aspirational scientists of the attractiveness and value of geosciences servicing mining as a profession, that will be positively contributing towards a sustainable climate change and zero carbon future.
