Second Announcement (Bulletin No. 2)
32nd International Conference on Coastal Engineering
(ICCE 2010)
Shanghai, China
June 30 – July 5, 2010
Invitation to ICCE 2010
The Local Organizing Committee of ICCE 2010 together with the Chinese Ocean Engineering Society warmly invite you to attend the 32nd International Conference on Coastal Engineering, hosted by Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute and Shanghai Jiaotong University, at the Shanghai International Convention Center in Shanghai, China on June 30 to July 5, 2010.
The conference is being organized under the auspices of the Coastal Engineering Research Council (CERC) of the Coasts, Ocean, Ports and Rivers Institute (COPRI) of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).
The Shanghai International Convention Center, having another name as Oriental Riverside Hotel, is the first 5-star convention hotel located in the heart of Lujiazui district, Shanghai's financial and trade center, southwest to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, and adjacent to the site of World Expo 2010 Shanghai. It is accessible from all parts of the city with various modern modes transportation. The hotel has 260 well-furnished guestrooms, comprehensive recreational facilities and meeting venues. A number of nearby hotels will be available to meet the different needs of participants.
Shanghai is the largest economic center and an important port city in China, with a land area covering 6,340 square kilometers and a population of over 16 million people. More than 100 foreign countries and regions have investments in some local projects, taking advantage of the 74 deepwater berths and 20 international container piers at the Shanghai Port. The Yangshan International Deep Water Port under construction is expected to give a modern twist to the port city. Shanghai is also a prominent historical city in China with rich cultural heritages. The vintage western style buildings on the Bund and the modern Lujiazui financial center in Pudong (to the east of the Huangpu River) reflect on each other over the Huangpu River.
I sincerely welcome you to ICCE 2010 and look forward to meeting you in Shanghai in June/July 2010.
Prof. Xie Shileng, LOC Chairman, ICCE 2010
