Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Green infrastructure (GI) is crucial for preserving urban water resources. Research is required to establish effective green infrastructure for flood reduction, water quality improvement and superior urban water cycle systems. In addition, to elucidate the optimal design and management for efficient GI, an improved understanding of how to better predict the quantity and quality of water in urban areas with GI is also required. In this context, the application of various methods, such as deep learning and meta-heuristic optimization algorithms, can enhance GI’s utilization.
This Special Issue aims to collect papers focused on the latest research results regarding ‘Green Infrastructure for Urban Water Resource Sustainability’.
With this aim in mind, we are seeking to submission of contributions spanning a broad range of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Water quality and quantity prediction using deep learning techniques;
- Simulation/experiment of GI in urban areas;
- Modelling sustainable urban water resource systems with GI;
- Development of resilience index for the assessment of GI;
- Operation of urban water resource systems through meta-heuristic optimization algorithms.
Original research articles and reviews are welcome for this Special Issue.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Eui Hoon Lee

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 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
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. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
