Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite researchers, academics, and practitioners to contribute their insights and recent findings to our Special Issue focused on "Slope Stability Analyses and Landslide Risk Assessment under Hydrodynamic Action, 2nd Edition".
This Special Issue aims to record a diverse range of studies that address the complexities of slope stability and landslide risk using various new approaches, such as analytical and numerical models, remote sensing technologies, machine learning algorithms, artificial intelligence, geospatial data analysis, etc. Particular attention will be given to investigations of hydrodynamic actions, including rainfall infiltration, groundwater flow, reservoir water level fluctuations, river and coastal processes, wave actions on slopes, pore pressure variations and seepage effects, and their influence on slope deformation, failure mechanisms, and landslide susceptibility.
We also welcome detailed analyses and lessons learned from specific case studies of landslides, water erosion, and sediment transport for their monitoring, prewarning, prevention, and mitigation. Studies that improve the understanding, modeling, and prediction of hydrodynamic processes and their role in triggering or accelerating slope instability are especially encouraged.
We look forward to your submissions and to advancing the knowledge in this field.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require additional information. You are also welcome to read papers published in the first edition of "Slope Stability Analyses and Landslide Risk Assessment Under Hydrodynamic Action".

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-anonymized 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.
