Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the control of point source pollution, non-point source pollution induced by rainfall runoff has been a primary source for water bodies. Therefore, the study regarding non-point source pollution has become a hotspot in the environmental field. However, the components and sources of non-point source pollution in water bodies are not fully understood. These knowledge gaps hamper the control of non-point source pollution and our ability to protect the water ecological environment. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a platform to disseminate the recent advances in sources, modelling and analysis regarding non-point source pollution in water bodies.
The specific thematic topics of interest in this Special Issue include the following:
- Novel methods and techniques for detecting and quantifying contaminants in non-point source pollution.
- Monitoring and modeling approaches for non-point source pollution analysis.
- Modeling and analyzing methods for non-point source pollution sources in water bodies.
- Holistic risk assessment of non-point source pollution for water bodies.
- Technology and strategy to prevent non-point source pollution for water bodies.
