Papers will report significant advances in a wide range of categories including (but not limited to): The different dimensions of water cycles: natural cycle, social cycle, ecological cycle, engineering cycle, cascading cycle and process cycle. The different scales of water cycles: water meta-cycle, local cycle, regional cycle, watershed cycle and environmental cycle. Water conservation in agricultural, industrial, domestic and municipal applications. Water treatment, recycle and reuse for different water resources, including wastewater, industrial wastewater, drinking water, reclaimed water, rainwater, seawater, mine water and brackish water. The water cycle-environment-ecosystem nexus. The water-waste-soil-atmosphere nexus. How water cycles interlink and interact with elements, materials and energy flows. Water mediated material transformation, element cycle and energy flow. The interactions, synergies and coordination between water conservation, reuse and the water cycle. Water system analysis, water policy and water management.
期刊介绍
Water Cycle is an interdisciplinary open access journal that publishes top-tier original research in all areas of water cycles, including meta-cycles. It examines their relationship to science, technology, society, economics, health, culture, policy, regulation and strategy. It also offers water academics, engineers and practitioners the opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience.
