Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The global climate is undergoing unprecedented changes, with profound implications for hydrological systems worldwide. As the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events increase, the need for innovative and sustainable water management strategies becomes more critical than ever. This Special Issue invites original research papers that explore the latest advancements in hydrology, water quality, climate change adaptation, and sustainable water management.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Hydrological modeling and forecasting: Advanced modeling techniques for predicting hydrological processes under changing climate conditions.
Water quality assessment and management: Strategies for monitoring and improving water quality in the face of climate-related challenges.
Climate change adaptation and mitigation: Innovative approaches to adapting to and mitigating the impacts of climate change on hydrological systems.
Sustainable water resource management: Strategies for ensuring equitable and sustainable access to water resources in a changing climate.
Machine learning and artificial intelligence: Applications of these technologies for hydrological modeling, prediction, and decision-making.
Case studies and lessons learned: Real-world examples of successful water management strategies and the challenges faced.

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. Geosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
