Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Geochemical behaviors of trace elements and their isotopes (TEIs) in the hydrosphere have been increasingly used to further understand sources, sinks, and cycling of the TEIs in the ocean and aquatic environemnts. With the international effort of the GEOTRACES program, for example, the main controls on the distributions of TEIs in the ocean have been better constrained in the past few years, and have been successfully applied to study the biogeochemical processes in the ocean, and the interactions among the hydrosphere, biosphere and lithosphere. In this Special Issue, entitled “Advance in Trace Elements and Their Isotopes in Marine Chemistry and Hydrogeology”, we welcome contributions that focus on any aspects of elemental mobility, isotopic variations, and analytical methods for investigating sources, sinks, and cyclings of the TEI in the ocean and freshwater environments. Papers on the anthropogenic influences on the TEIs in the hydrospere and applications in Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology are also very welcome.
The main objective of this Special Issue is to enhance the potential applications of using tracers of trace elements and their isotopes for studying oceanographic and hydrogelological studies.

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.
