Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Rapid socioeconomic development coupled with climate change is likely to result in uncertainty in agricultural water use, making water resource management and regulation even more difficult. As a result, it is important to conduct research on water supply to irrigation districts and their operations, crop water requirement, and the balance between water supply and demand, as well as theories and methods for evaluating water resources’ carrying capacity in irrigation districts under a changing environment. In this regard, we welcome scholars to submit their research to this Special Issue entitled “Exploring progress in Agricultural Water Management under Changing Environments: Monitoring, Modelling, Performances, and Optimization with Applications”.

This Special Issue encourages research papers on agricultural water management that include knowledge of water resource optimization, mathematical models, hydrological modeling, agricultural water productivity, and other advanced techniques or approaches. Although preference is given to the fundamental issues, papers focusing on important unconventional or emerging applications of broad interest are also welcome.

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.

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.
