Description
There is a need now more than ever to apply an integrated, cross-disciplinary approach to river basin management as recognised by the UN Watercourses Convention, World Water Vision, World Water Council and Global Water Partnership. The International Journal of River Basin Management addresses this need. It brings together research dedicated to all aspects of integrated river and floodplain management including catchments, wetlands and estuarine systems. Examples topics include but are not limited to: integrated water resources management spatial planning and management of watershed flood/drought forecasting and risk management floodplain, river and estuarine restoration terrestrial hydrometeorology ecohydrology climate change impacts, adaption and mitigation measures water quality operation and maintenance strategies for engineered river systems and structures project-affected-people and stakeholder participation sustainable and adaptive management institutional, legislative, social and policy issues international river basin studies The journal welcomes high-quality submissions from different disciplines across river basin management i.e. hydrology, meteorology, climatology, physical geography, hydraulic engineering, water management and governance. We invite contributions which include GIS, remote sensing, monitoring, modelling applications and risk assessment. Submitted papers must be presented clearly and be understandable to researchers who are not subject experts in your particular specialism. Please see the Instructions for Authors for further details before submitting.
