Hydrology (ISSN 2306-5338) is an international, multi/interdisciplinary open access and peer-reviewed journal that focuses on hydrological sciences. The journal encompasses all aspects of hydrology: groundwater, surface water, soil water, and atmospheric water, as well as snow and ice. Papers advancing the quantitative, qualitative, ecological, and managerial aspects of hydrology are welcome. Particularly welcome are those papers that discuss such aspects’ interrelationships.
Research addressing issues in integrated water management, policy, and socio-hydrology are also invited. We encourage colleagues to submit their original theoretical, field, experimental, and numerical studies and literature reviews and especially look forward to multidisciplinary approaches and interdisciplinary topics, which cross the typical boundaries of our science.
Hydrology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). MDPI takes the responsibility to enforce a rigorous peer-review together with strict ethical policies and standards to ensure to add high quality scientific works to the field of scholarly publication. Unfortunately, cases of plagiarism, data falsification, inappropriate authorship credit, and the like, do arise. MDPI takes such publishing ethics issues very seriously and our editors are trained to proceed in such cases with a zero tolerance policy. To verify the originality of content submitted to our journals, we use iThenticate to check submissions against previous publications.
