Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, climate change has become one of the most urgent problems in the world, especially regarding the management and protection of water resources. Rising temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns disturb the entire water cycle. This affects the hydrological regime and leads to water scarcity and water-related extreme naturals hazards including floods and droughts. In the face of increasing climate instability, urbanization growth and economical losses, there is an urgent need to prevent the degradation of water resources and stop the further decline in biodiversity.
Research published in this Special Issue should focus on innovative spatial analyses, methods and models that can be applied for the purpose of the ecohydrological, geomorphological and environmental management of surface and groundwater resources. Results presented at different scales should help in finding solutions to improve water management and flood protection, enhance biodiversity, and help policy makers make better decisions regarding ecological threats, and at the same time, helps to protect the hydrological regime and catchment processes.
This Special Issue aims to publish research results including:
- The impact of climate change on the hydrological regime;
- Advanced methods and techniques for hydrological modelling;
- Modelling of integrated water resource management;
- Analyses of pollutants and sediment transport in rivers, lakes and reservoirs;
- Mitigating impacts of anthropogenic pressures on water flows;
- The mapping of water related extreme events including floods and drought;
- The application of remote sensing and GIS in water resource monitoring;
- Future challenges for integrated water management.

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.
