Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue covers all topics related to the use of sensors in general, and chemical sensors in particular, to assess an aspect or aspects of water quality, including waters of any origin or use.
Water quality monitoring is crucial across a wide variety of cases. Water quality is related to a number of physical, chemical and biological parameters that are determined by the use or origin of the water. Water’s uses include drinking, irrigation, aquaculture and industry. The origins of water include groundwater, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, seawater, wastewater and waters from aquaculture. The water’s quality is indicative of environmental pollution.
Chemical sensors are a very useful tool for water quality monitoring. This is due to the wide variety of chemical sensors available and their continuous innovation, which allows many different chemical species to be monitored. Additionally, these sensors have suitable performance characteristics for real-time, in situ measurements.

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. Sensors 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.
