Aims and Scope of Water Research
Water Research is a journal of the International Water Association, and publishes research on the science and technology of water quality and its management. It is one of the leading journals in the field of water science and technology. Each year more than 3,000 scientific publications are revised which requires about 7,500 peer reviews per year. In Water Research mainly biologists, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists and microbiologists publish their research. Less
