JRBM Best Paper and Best Reviewer Awards
Founding Statement
The
JRBM Best Paper Award
rewards biannually the best contribution to the
International Journal of River Basin Management (JRBM)
with strong original research dealing with significant basin management problems.
The award is granted to the corresponding author of the paper judged the most outstanding paper published in the IAHR International Journal of River Basin Management in the two years preceding the
River Flow Conference
The
JRBM Best Reviewer Award
rewards biannually the most outstanding reviewer to the International Journal of River Basin Management (JRBM) in the two years preceding the
River Flow Conference
The International Journal of River Basin Management (JRBM) brings together research dedicated to all aspects of integrated river and floodplain management including catchments, wetlands, and estuarine systems with the aim of applying an integrated, cross-disciplinary approach to river basin management as recognised by the UN Watercourses Convention, World Water Vision, World Water Council and Global Water Partnership.  To assist in this task, the International Association of Hydro-environment Engineering and Research and Taylor and Francis offer an annual award for the best contribution to JRBM.
Established in 2010, this IAHR award is supported by
Taylor and Francis
and was reactivated under the current rules in 2023.
