Landslide on Hydrological Response

Dear Colleagues,                

Hydrological factors, such as rainfall and reservoir water level fluctuations, play a crucial role in triggering landslides. These factors periodically alter the seepage field within a landslide. Changes in pore water pressure and seepage forces exerted on soil or rock significantly affect landslide stability. A clear understanding of these mechanisms is vital for effective landslide risk mitigation and the protection of communities.

This Special Issue focuses on advancing research into the relationship between hydrological processes and landslide dynamics. Topics of interest include the following:

• Early identification and susceptibility evaluation of water-induced landslide;
• Application of novel monitoring technology in water-induced landslide;
• Formation and deformation mechanism of water-induced landslide;
• Early warning and stability analysis of water-induced landslide;
• Comprehensive risk assessment of water-induced landslide.

By addressing these themes, this Special Issue aims to deepen our understanding of hydrological–landslide interactions and promote practical solutions for landslide risk management. Researchers are encouraged to contribute original studies, reviews, and case studies to this multidisciplinary platform.

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.
