Аннотация:Erosion and sediment-related problems are well documented globally and continue to warrant further scientific investigation, as well as improved policies and management strategies to protect soil and waterresources. The International Commission on Continental Erosion (ICCE) has long been a very active commissionof the International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS) focussing on progressing scientific understanding of erosion and sediment systems. This paper provides a brief overview of its main scientific foci, examplesof previous contributions to scientific conferences and finally, concludes by paying tribute to two key formermembers of the international scientific community engaged with its remit.
