Aims and Scope

The aim of publishing the journal of Ecohydrology is to introduce professors, specialists, experts, and students in related fields to ecohydrology.

According to the definition provided by UNESCO, ecohydrology studies the interactions between ecology and hydrology, with the goal of preserving biodiversity and achieving maximum coordination in hydrological processes within watershed areas. Therefore, the topics that this journal accepts specialized articles on include the following interdisciplinary areas:

  • Impact of Climate Change on Ecohydrological Processes

  • Ecohydrological Impacts of Changes in Precipitation Patterns on Soil and Plant Systems

  • Plant Adaptation Strategies to Altered Climatic Conditions

  • Long-Term Climate Change Impacts on Soil Health and Plant Production

  • Ecohydrological Chain of Water-Soil-Plant-Atmosphere

  • Soil Moisture Dynamics and Plant Transpiration

  • Impact of Climatic Conditions on Soil and Plant Moisture Status

  • Nutrient Cycle

  • Role of Water in Nutrient Uptake and Transfer
