University of Bayreuth, GERMANYO. Batelaan and C. Anibas visited the University of Bayreuth, Lehrstuhl fürHydrologie, at the 4-5 July 2008. Host was Dr. Jan Fleckenstein, lecturer inhydrology. Recent developments and results were discussed on local scalegroundwater-surface water interaction with quasi-steady state heat transportmodeling of the hyporheic zone. Newly developed field instrumentation waspresented and tested. Collaboration was set up for the exchange of field data andheat transport modeling using FEMME and VS2DH. C. Anibas presented his work atthe ‘Geoökologisches Kolloquium’, 5-7-2007.6. SEMINARS AND VISITORSProf. Dr. Ahmed Kotb of the Faculty of Science, Al Azhar University, Egypt, stayed at thedepartment for a 6 months research mission from August 2006 to February 2007,provided by a fellowship funded from the Mission Department, Egyptian Government.Prof. Dr. Ahmed Kotb is an alumnus of the VUB Hydrology post graduate program 1986-87.

In both cases he was teaching GPS techniques to the Civil Engineeringstudents, also exercises in topographic field measurements using GPS and total stationwere guided and supported with his equipment.Prof. Theo Scheepers of Department of Earth Sciences, University of the Western Cape,South Africa, stayed within the framework of the IUS-cooperation with his university from26/2 till 4/3 at the department. He presented in Leuven on Wednesday 28 February 2007for IUPWARE students and other interested a seminar on “Fluvial Action in a Hyper-AridEnvironment: The Case of the Uniab River, Skeleton Coast, Namibia”- 67 -
