Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on hydrological studies of specific regions, often examining the impacts of climate variability, water management practices, and human activities on water resources. Research frequently employs hydrological models, machine learning techniques, and integrated frameworks to analyze streamflow, soil moisture, groundwater dynamics, and water quality. Studies also investigate drought characteristics, urban flooding, and the effectiveness of water diversion projects.
