Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Lake eutrophication has deteriorated the water quality and destroyed the ecosystem in many lakes. Both the external and internal loading of nutrients can affect the nutrient concentrations in the lake waterbody. Other factors, such as water temperature and light, may also control the growth of phytoplankton. Lake eutrophication management thereby requires careful consideration of nutrient loading as well as other factors. Climate change makes lake eutrophication management more challenging.
In this Special Issue, we call for papers on lake eutrophication management. We welcome all studies relating to lake eutrophication, including (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Estimate watershed nutrients loading into the lake waterbody.
- Explore potential causality relationships within the lake ecosystem.
- Reveal the importance of external and/or internal loadings of nutrients.
- Develop effective monitoring technologies or methods for early warning of cyanobacteria blooms in lakes.
- Show impacts of climate change on lake trophic state.
- Propose effective strategies or suggestions to curb lake eutrophication.

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.
