Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

This topic focuses on cutting-edge research and key issues in the field of groundwater science and engineering, covering a wide range of subjects in depth.

In terms of groundwater pollution, the topic delves deeply into the migration and transformation mechanisms of various pollutants in groundwater, including organic pollutants and heavy metals. It introduces advanced monitoring technologies and simulation methods, providing theoretical support for the precise assessment and effective governance of pollution. Regarding groundwater resource management, the topic emphasizes the importance of sustainability, analyzes the supply-and-demand balance of water resources in different regions, and proposes water resource optimization allocation strategies based on ecological protection. The topic also pays attention to the relationship between groundwater and geological structures, studying the occurrence characteristics and flow patterns of groundwater under different geological conditions and providing important references for geological exploration and engineering construction. Additionally, in terms of the interaction between groundwater and the ecosystem, it reveals the impact of groundwater changes on ecosystem functions and species diversity, providing a basis for ecological protection and restoration.

In conclusion, the topic brings together the latest research results and practical experiences, providing valuable knowledge and ideas for the development of groundwater science and engineering, and helping to promote further innovation and application in this field.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
