Eutrophication Management and Ecological Restoration of Waterbodies
This special issue belongs to the section “Environmental Science and Engineering“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Eutrophication has been a worldwide problem deteriorating water quality and destroying the aquatic ecosystems. Many factors, such as nutrients, temperature, and light, can impact the phytoplankton biomass in waterbodies. Climate change makes eutrophication management more challenging. Identifying key processes of eutrophication is, thereby, essential for effective management. Watershed pollution control and the ecological restoration of waterbodies are two effective ways to curb eutrophication. To further advance studies on eutrophication management, we launch this Special Issue in IJERPH.
We welcome studies relating to eutrophication management and the ecological restoration of all the waterbodies, including (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Identify key processes/drivers to eutrophication of a waterbody.
- Estimate external/internal nutrient loading.
- Apply mechanism or data-driven models for water quality forecast and early warning.
- Emphasize the importance of ecological restoration.
- Reveal the impacts of climate change on eutrophication.
- Propose effective eutrophication management strategies.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 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 2500 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.
