There is a need now more than ever to apply an integrated, cross-disciplinary approach to river basin management as recognised by the UN Watercourses Convention, World Water Vision, World Water Council and Global Water Partnership.
The International Journal of River Basin Management addresses this need. It brings together research dedicated to all aspects of integrated river and floodplain management including catchments, wetlands and estuarine systems. Examples topics include but are not limited to:
• integrated water resources management
• spatial planning and management of watershed
• flood/drought forecasting and risk management
• floodplain, river and estuarine restoration
• terrestrial hydrometeorology
• ecohydrology
• climate change impacts, adaption and mitigation measures
• water quality
• operation and maintenance strategies for engineered river systems and structures
• project-affected-people and stakeholder participation
• sustainable and adaptive management
• institutional, legislative, social and policy issues
• international river basin studies
The journal welcomes high-quality submissions from different disciplines across river basin management i.e. hydrology, meteorology, climatology, physical geography, hydraulic engineering, water management and governance. We invite contributions which include GIS, remote sensing, monitoring, modelling applications and risk assessment. Submitted papers must be presented clearly and be understandable to researchers who are not subject experts in your particular specialism. Please see the Instructions for Authors for further details before submitting.
Peer Review
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editors, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
Manuscript Types Accepted
• research papers
• case studies
• forum/opinion
• book reviews
Awards
There is a JRBM best paper prize of 600 Euros for papers published in the previous year and is awarded annually.
