Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Currently, many geographical regions are experiencing rapid changes in land use/land cover [LULC], which are generally the result of agricultural or urbanization pressures and sometimes their abandonment. These processes are often also influenced by documented changes in precipitation patterns and associated frequent precipitation-free periods. It is therefore pertinent to present the latest findings on the response of watershed areas to ongoing climatic and environmental changes. These areas of research are crucial not only in shaping water resources and river flow regimes but also in sustainable water management throughout basins.

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).
