The current insufficient number of existing hydrological posts, the reduction of field research opportunities, the deterioration of the quality and the inaccessibility of hydrometeorological, mapping information, and for most water bodies simply the lack of data leads to the impossibility of a comprehensive hydrological and morphological study of the river basin and the assessment of intensities.

The need for interdisciplinary collaboration across geomorphology, hydrology, sediment transport, hydraulics, and geotechnics. The lack of a transferable workflow for assessing climate-sensitive river erosion and associated geotechnical risks. The uncertainty associated with predicting long-term erosion evolution in river systems.
