Towards Practical Guidance for Sustainable Sediment Management using the Sava River Basin as a Showcase [PDF format - 3.3 MB]
2014 edition
The project was launched upon the initiative of UNESCO Venice Office, together with the UNESCO International Sediment Initiative (ISI), European Sediment Network (SedNet) and the International Sava River Basin Commission (ISRBC) aiming to develop and validate a practical guidance on how to achieve a SSM Plan on the river-basin scale, using the Sava River Basin as a showcase.

Erosion and sediment dynamics from catchment to coast [PDF format - 2.03 MB]
(Technical Documents in Hydrology N°82, 2008)
This volume comprises two papers: “A Northern Perspective” by Giampaolo DiSilvio and “A Southern Perspective” by Gerrit Basson. The subject of both papers is the modelling and prediction of sediment processes in watersheds and watercourses, which is essential for the development of sediment management policies and strategies in the respective regions.
