Young Hydrologic Society

The Young Hydrologic Society (YHS) is a bottom-up initiative to stimulate the interaction and active participation of young hydrologists within the hydrological community.

Founded in October 2012, the YHS is currently run by a team of enthusiastic MScs, PhD students and post-docs from several universities across the world. The YHS board members manage the day-to-day YHS activities: organising conference sessions, creating blog posts and running the YHS social media.

YHS is organised as a group of committees supported by the President and Vice-president. Each board member usually serves a two-year term.

The following committees now have open positions:

• Blog: The members of the committee write blog posts, invite contributions to the blog and serve as editors and reviewers. Multiple vacancies.
• National Branches: The members of the committee support new and established national YHS branches and national representatives where necessary. Multiple vacancies.
• Outreach: The members of the committee manage the YHS platforms on Bluesky, X, Facebook, and LinkedIn. That includes sharing YHS news, early career events and job opportunities. Multiple vacancies.
• Conferences: The members of the committee coordinate YHS-led networking events, short courses and sessions at national and international conferences. For that, it can rely on the support of the entire board and the EGU – IAHS Early Career Representatives. Multiple vacancies.
