Climatic Change Impact on Hydrology

Dear Colleagues,

Ongoing and future climate change will impact water resources worldwide and redefine risk levels associated with hydrological extremes. Climate change impacts on catchment hydrology are likely to display strong regionalism, due to both spatially-variable climate forcing and the often unique physiographic characteristics of individual catchments. Understanding and predicting the hydrological response of catchment to climate change under different climate regimes, and elucidating the role of physiographic factors or 'catchment structure' (topography, geology, geomorphology, land cover and use, etc.) in mediating this response, thus represent active research areas in hydrology. This Special Issue welcomes contributions related to climate change impacts on hydrology, including but not limited to the following topics:

• Diagnostics of streamflow-climate relationships from historical observations;
• Model-based projections of streamflow variability in response to climate change;
• Changes in flood and baseflow characteristics in response to historical and projected climate change;
• Influence of catchment structure and climate type on the catchment response to climate change;
• Impact of changing snow storage on hydrology

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Hydrology is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
