6th International Workshop on High Temporal Resolution Water Quality Monitoring and Analysis

2nd to 4th September 2026

Freiburg, Germany

We are delighted to invite the global hydrology community to the 6th International Workshop on High-Temporal Resolution Water Quality Monitoring and Analysis. Join us at the University of Freiburg, Germany, for three days dedicated to bridging the gap between emerging high-frequency measurements and smart analytics!

The workshop will focus on three key themes that are shaping the future of water quality monitoring and analysis:

  • Emerging High-Frequency Measurements: From the stream channel to the whole catchment.
  • Smart Analytics: Machine learning and beyond for high-frequency water quality data.
  • Spatio-Temporal Patterns: Increasing data in space and time to detect trends and changes.
These themes will be explored through a combination of keynote talks, oral and poster presentations, and interactive sessions.

Keynotes will be given by:
  • Prof. Dr. Julia Knapp (University of Bayreuth, Germany): From Signals to Inference: Making the Most of High Frequency Water Quality Data for Event Scale Analysis
  • Dr. Joachim Rozemeijer (Deltares, Netherlands): Best practice in high-frequency water quality monitoring and application to support a spatial targeting approach in two agricultural catchments
