Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Water is one of the most key variables in the earth sciences. Many processes in the components of the earth, such as atmosphere, land surface, ocean, and biosphere, involve the water. However, these water-associated processes are vulnerable to alteration as a result of climate change. Understanding the changes in water under climate change is crucial for individuals and governments to adapt to the effects of climate change.
This Special Issue mainly focuses on the impacts of climate change on water-associated processes, including but not limited to all the atmospheric and land-surface processes in the hydrological cycle, extreme hydro-climate events (e.g., flooding, drought, and their concurrent events), detection and attribution of anthropogenic climate change in extreme events, and the assessment of climate change impacts. We also encourage researchers to submit crossover findings, such as those related to health and water-associated climate.
This Issue will be a good supplement to current literature on the understanding of water-associated processes under climate change.

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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.
