Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The scarcity of water resources is a critical issue across Europe and worldwide. It is undoubtedly exacerbated by the documented impacts related to climate change and ensuing extreme drought periods. Water services and environmental stewardship in terms of diffuse and simple access to clean water are increasingly important, their vulnerability being, in the context of shortage of water resources, widely documented. This Special Issue on “Water Pollution Monitoring, Control, and Remediation” focuses on recent advances and prospects of water studies including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Methods of monitoring and control of water parameters in terms of its quality and quantity;
  • Control of water balance in the environment in relation to climate change impacts;
  • Innovative solutions for the protection and remediation of water resources;
  • Technologies and techniques that facilitate the reduction of surface and groundwater water pollution;
  • Novel approaches in water resource modelling with a consideration of climate negative impacts (hazardous extreme weather events, risks of floods and droughts, etc.).

We invite contributions from researchers involved with experimental and theoretical aspects linked to hydrology and hydrogeology with a consideration of climate change impacts, with application to water resources, water contamination and remediation, industrial and urban impacts on water, and related areas.

By presenting this integrative and multidisciplinary volume, we aim to transfer new knowledge to hydrologists, water resource planners, and policymakers engaged in the sustainable development, protection, and remediation of water resources.
