Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in hydraulics of river networks either invasive or non-invasive, have greatly promoted and expanded our understanding of river network hydrodynamics, basin-scale runoff process and associated environmental/ecological problems. Among these, the striking advances include: (1) novel numerical simulation methods for large river networks, e.g. model efficiency improvement, multiscale coupling methods, machine learning methods, and coupling of hydrologic and hydraulic models; (2) hydrodynamics and mass transport in river networks and their effects on water environment and ecology; (3) multi-objective scheduling of water project group and water security improvement for river networks, e.g. flood control, water resource management, water ecology protection; (4) hydrodynamics of surface water flooding and pollutant transport in urban environments.
This Special Issue continues to focus on, but is not limited to, the abovementioned topics, aiming to provide state-of-the-art developments within experiments, numerical simulations and field observations of river network hydraulics. This Special Issue will also serve as a platform for collecting and exchanging the latest academic research findings in river network hydraulics and river-related environment or ecology, along with novel measurement techniques, experimental and simulation methods. You are cordially invited to make a contribution to this Special Issue, rendering it successful and influential.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Water is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
