  • Journal of Contaminant Hydrology

    • ISSN: 0169-7722
    The Journal of Contaminant Hydrology is an international journal publishing scientific articles contributing to a broad understanding of contamination of water resources. Emphasis is placed on investigations of the physical, chemical, and biological processes influencing the behaviour and fate of organic and inorganic contaminants in the aqueous environment including ecological impacts. Water-based science, technology and management approaches that monitor, assess, control and mitigate contamination and its eco-environmental impacts at multiple scales are invited. Broad latitude is allowed in identifying contaminants of interest, and includes legacy and emerging pollutants, nutrients, nanoparticles, microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses, and protozoa), microplastics, and various constituents associated with energy production (e.g., methane, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide).The journal's scope embraces a wide range of topics that include: surface and subsurface hydrology as it relates to contamination; experimental and computational investigations of contaminant sorption, diffusion, biological and chemical transformation, volatilization and transport in the surface and subsurface; characterization of soil and sediment properties only as they influence contaminant behaviour; development and testing of mathematical models of contaminant behaviour; innovative techniques for restoration of contaminated sites; development of new tools or techniques for monitoring the extent of soil, sediment, and water contamination; development of mathematical models and system analysis techniques for understanding and managing surface and subsurface water resources systems including hyporheic zone processes; analyses of interactions between water-use activities and the environment; carbon sequestration and turnover; and water contamination issues associated with energy production.There are some types of papers that are not suitable for submission, for example, Environmental Monitoring, Case Studies, and Method. Please find more information in the Article Types section of the Guide for Authors.

  • Water Research

    • ISSN: 0043-1354
    In association with the International Water Association.Water Research has an open access companion journal Water Research X, sharing the same aims and scope and rigorous peer review. Water Research publishes refereed, original research papers on all aspects of the science and technology of the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. A broad outline of the journal's scope includes:Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management; Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;Drink... water treatment and distribution;Potable and non-potable water reuse;Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;Contaminan... (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;Anthropog... impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;Environmen... restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle; Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.Water Research is an interdisciplinary journal with an applied edge. This means that papers that go into too many details of one of the supporting disciplines (such as chemistry, toxicology, microbiology, material sciences, etc.) without making a good link with water research in general may be rejected up-front. More information on types of manuscripts that are not suitable for Water Research are discussed in an editorial available here.Audience: Biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists.Note that Water Research/Water Research X do not do pre-submission evaluations. Please carefully review the journal scope and previous issues of the journals to assess the fit of your manuscript. The handling editor will then evaluate suitability of your full manuscript.Elsevier and IWA also collaborate on another specialist title which authors are welcome to submit to: The open access Water Resources and Industry focuses on the role that industry plays in the exploitation, management and treatment of water resources.
