Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to submit a paper to the Special Issue titled ‘Hydraulics and Hydrodynamics of Overland Flow—Catchment, Subcatchment, Plot Scale and Experimental Approach’. The hydraulics and hydrodynamics of overland flow conditions are still poorly recognized in the literature. The vast literature on soil erosion rarely addresses physical processes associated with water flow on slope and in homogeneous catchments of low hydrological order. There is a particular lack of work presenting the results of field investigation documenting the different phases and mechanisms of slope water flow from the moment of crossing the surface detention phase. We expect articles concerning the hydraulic and hydrodynamic conditions of overland flow and their individual forms, such as linear flow and sheet flow in slope systems. We are especially interested in submissions concerning the boundary conditions of slope flow and the hydraulic regime of flow in prerills, erosional rills, and flow in episodic channels or ephemeral gullies.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
