Canadian Symposium on Fluid Dynamics

The Canadian Symposium on Fluid Dynamics started in 1974 and runs biennially, bringing together Canadian and international researchers from diverse areas of fluid dynamics. The symposium is run autonomously by a group of co-organizers, but is endorsed by CAIMS/SCMAI and since 1998 has been run in conjunction with the CAIMS/SCMAI annual meeting.
