Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Water-related hazards and climate change, including flood and drought, are considered among the most complex natural phenomena which are related to high numbers of fatalities, causing severe effects on natural, eco-, and socioeconomic systems. Determination and prediction of the trends of these extreme events are fundamental and challenging topics in hydro-climate studies. Therefore, this Special Issue will be focused on all aspects of extreme hydro-climate conditions including, but not limited to, hydrometeorology, atmosphere, and hydrology (from local to watershed) under various scales. Studies on all manner of the modeling, forecasting, assessment, and analysis of hydro-climate extremes are welcome, including estimation of extreme events by means of modeling, monitoring, and sensors; forecasting and warning technologies for extreme hydro-climate conditions; early identification of a range of natural disasters such as drought, floods, flash-floods, landslides, avalanches, serious cases of hail damage, and external and internal mechanisms; assessment and projection of historical and future regimes (climate change scenarios, CIMIP5, CIMIP6); interaction between atmospheric and hydrologic systems; impacts and changes on natural systems, social systems, and economies. Studies may also consider evacuation, vulnerability and recovery, and mitigation and adaptation strategies for extreme hydro-climate conditions.

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. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
