Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore the environmental behaviour of water elements and pollutants, the interaction between pollutants and aquatic organisms, and their ecological effects. This Special Issue conducts an in-depth and systematic cross-disciplinary research analysis on water environmental quality assessment (including environmental science and engineering, ecology, earth science, environmental chemistry, etc.). The research results can provide scientific basis and theoretical support for evaluating water quality and potential ecological risks of emerging pollutants. This Special Issue focuses on the assessment of water quality and pollutant behaviour, including (but not limited to) the following topics:
- An evaluation of water elements, such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus;
- Environmental behaviours such as the migration and transformation of pollutants;
- Relationships between pollutant stress and ecological status;
- The synergistic ecological effects of water elements and environmental pollutants.
