Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to study the non-stationary changes and impacts of climate and precipitation in a changing en-vironment. We invite original research and review articles on high-resolution regional climate models, hybrid modeling and prediction under the advanced machine learning/deep learning framework, and the exploration of water cycle im-pact mechanisms. By improving our modeling capabilities and prediction accuracy, this Special Issue aims to provide a strong scientific basis for climate adaptation, risk assessment and infrastructure planning.
Key areas of interest include precipitation data fusion correction, hydrometeorological modeling methods and attribu-tion mechanism analysis. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Mechanisms and dynamics of compounding extreme events;
- Satellite remote sensing in monitoring extreme precipitation;
- Machine learning and AI in precipitation forecasting;
- Uncertainty quantification in future climate projections;
- Climate change attribution and risk assessment.

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. Water is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
