Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainable management of aquatic ecosystems is a worldwide priority, and provides strong support for the protection of water environment and the restoration of aquatic system. It includes advanced assessment methodologies, water simulation modelling, and the systematic water management system and policy, which face the future challenges deriving from a sustainable management of watershed aquatic system. At this regard, this special Issue seeks research papers proposing new efficient methodologies and management solutions aimed to aquatic health: ecological funtion/processes/assessment/modelling/management system for watershed aquatic system.
Ecological health assessment (indictors), ecological processes modelling, ecosystem services and function analysis, rivers-lakes connectivity in structures and function; monitoring and data management systems, and sustainability and eco-environmental policies for the rivers, lakes, estuaries, coasts, and wetlands in the watershed are the main common factors that characterize the manuscripts published on this special issue.
