Special Issue on Hydrogeology and Water Cycle

Hydrogeology is the study of the movement and storage of water in the crust of Earth and other rocky planetary bodies. It maps and quantifies the water stored in underground aquifers and occasionally surface systems, identifies pathways of flow and recharge, and assesses the chemical composition and quality of the below-ground water. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of hydrogeology and water cycle.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring hydrogeology and water cycle. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Continuous circulation of water in the Earth-atmosphere system
• Evaporation, transpiration
• Condensation, precipitation, and runoff 
• Surface water hydrology
• Ground water quality & analysis
• Hydrology modelling
• Characteristics of the regional hydrological cycle
• Effects on biogeochemical cycling

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue - Hydrogeology and Water Cycle” should be chosen during your submission.

According to the following timetable:
