Modeling and Monitoring Climate Extremes and Impacts on Natural-Human Systems

Dear Colleagues,

During recent years, the book-keeping records of extreme events and disasters have been replaced year by year. Because of significant advances over the past decade in modeling and remote sensing capacity for climate–hydrology–human interactions, our understanding of the causes and impacts of such extreme events and disasters has improved considerably.

This Special Issue aims to solicit original scientific contributions from the broader community related to climate and atmospheric sciences, hydrology, and remote sensing, on the following topics: (1) The variability of climate forcing and hydrological feedback; (2) the detection/attribution of extreme events, and impact assessment; (3) the modeling of interactions between nature and human society; and (4) remote sensing hydrology, and data–model integration.

Studies that focus on modeling and/or monitoring behaviors as coupled natural–human systems against extreme climatic perturbation from multi-scale perspectives are particularly encouraged, but studies related to the general areas of climate and hydrological extremes, climate change and impact assessments, sustainability science, numerical model development, and the development of remote sensing algorithms are equally welcome.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Atmosphere .

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.
