Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite researchers, academics, and practitioners to contribute their insights and recent findings to our Special Issue focused on “Slope Stability Analyses and Landslide Risk Assessment under Hydrodynamic Action”.

This Special Issue aims to record a diverse range of studies that address the complexities of slope stability and landslide risk using various new approaches, such as analytical and numerical models, remote sensing technologies, machine learning algorithms, artificial intelligence, geospatial data analysis, etc.

We also welcome detailed analyses and lessons learned from specific case studies of landslides, water erosion, and sediment transport for their monitoring, prewarning, prevention, and mitigation.

We look forward to your submissions and to advancing the knowledge in this field.

Prof. Dr. Zheng-Yi Feng

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. Water 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 2600 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.
