Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Sustainability Special Issue entitled ‘Ecohydrological Research Toward Sustainable and Resilient Watershed Management’ will receive relevant contributions to the theme, specifically looking at the following:
(1) Identifying novel technologies in ecohydrological science and nature-based solutions for the sustainability and resilience of freshwater systems, focusing on theoretical and practical approaches, indicators, methodologies, and case studies.
(2) Presentation and discussion of new insights in ecohydrology and IWRM, updating the existintg liteterature with new approaches and practical applications.
The Special Issue will contribute to improve the security and resilience of freshwater systems, mitigating the impacts of water-related hazards such as floods, droughts, abstraction, pollution, and sedimentation, safeguarding access to water functions and services, managing water resources in an integrated and equitable manner.
