Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In this Special Issue, we invite original and review articles using aquatic observations from a wide range of sources, including in situ observations, satellites, buoy systems, and modeling approaches. Space-based measurements of aquatic systems with a combination of high temporal and spatial resolutions are preferred for describing the fate and transport characteristics of contaminants in aquatic systems. Any innovative prediction tools and observations that improve the short- and long-term knowledge on the fate and transport of contaminants in the aquatic environment are particularly welcome.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
(1) Mechanisms and countermeasures of environmental changes in the aquatic system;
(2) The prediction of short- and long-term environmental changes in the aquatic system against the background of enhanced human activities and climate change;
(3) Datasets reconstruction and impact simulation of the ecosystem in the aquatic system based on advanced big data and AI technologies;
(4) Strategies and tactics to engage the public for aquatic disaster management.
