The Interrelationship between Climate Change, Human Activities and Hydrological Processes, Volume II

Dear Colleagues,

Climate change affects hydrological processes through factors such as temperature, humidity and precipitation. In the context of climate change, human activities will also cause corresponding hydrological effects. With the increase in social productivity, the increase in land use intensity and the increasingly complex forms of land use, the impact of land use/land cover changes on hydrology and water resources has gradually deepened. The changes in hydrological processes and their impact mechanisms are complex. On the one hand, climate change and human activities affect the hydrological process. On the other hand, changes in hydrological processes will further affect climate and human activities. This bi-directionality and uncertainty make research more complicated. It is precisely because of this complexity that there have been many related studies. However, how climate change and human activities affect hydrological processes, and how hydrological processes react to climate change and human activities, still have many issues to be solved. The authors of the world's hydrological communities are welcome to submit appropriate manuscripts. Topics to be addressed include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Hydrological effects of climate change and human activities;
2. The influence of hydrological factors on climate and human activities;
3. Hydrological processes and hydrological ecology;
4. Interaction of climate change, human activities and hydrological processes;
5. Drought or heatwave characteristics caused by climate change or human activities;
6. Water security issues caused by climate change and human activities;
7. Changes in vegetation, soil and rock hydrological processes caused by climate change and human activities.

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.
