Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the Editor-in-Chief of Environments, I am pleased to announce this Special Issue, entitled “Environments: 10 Years of Science Together”. With 2024 marking the 10th anniversary of Environments (ISSN: 2076-3298), we are taking this opportunity to celebrate the journal´s achievements over the last 10 years. Since 2014, when the inaugural issue of Environments was launched, we have published more than 1000 papers from more than 4600 authors. Environments is now indexed in Scopus, ESCI (Web of Science), and other databases—a clear demonstration of the huge interest and effort of readers, authors, reviewers, editors, and the Editorial Office Members. This Special Issue aims to cover the latest research and innovative developments on a broad range of environmental topics according to the keywords below indicated (and more). We warmly invite you to contribute original research papers or comprehensive review articles for peer-review and possible publication.
We look forward to receiving your valued contributions.
Prof. Dr. Sergio Ulgiati
