What is it about?
The paper presents the numerical modelling of the hydro-morphological evolution of a 10 km reach of the Po River in Italy. The simulation is performed with the freeware code iRIC, recently developed by an international community of scientists and practitioners.

Why is it important?
First results show a promising capability of the model in reproducing the behaviour of the reach, both in terms of liquid flow and morphodynamics, if compared with historical data measured along the watercourse and reported in literature.
Perspectives
In the future, additional simulations will be performed, enlarging the studied area and using detailed input data measured with traditional and innovative techniques.
