Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The study of hydrogeochemical processes in groundwater systems plays a pivotal role in understanding the quality, availability, and sustainability of water resources. Recent advancements in analytical techniques and computational modeling have significantly enhanced our ability to predict and manage groundwater chemistry. Moreover, integrating geochemical data with hydrological models provides a holistic approach to groundwater management, essential for addressing global challenges such as water scarcity, pollution, and climate change. Advancing applications in hydrogeochemical processes in groundwater systems cover a wide range of areas, including, but not limited to, contaminant transport and remediation, nutrient pollution, biogeochemical cycling, isotopic and geochemical tracing, emerging contaminants and water quality concerns, machine learning and big data in hydrogeochemistry, predictive modeling, and applications in karst groundwater systems. As the demand for clean groundwater increases, advancing applications in hydrogeochemical processes become indispensable for sustainable water resource management and environmental protection.
This Special Issue of Water focuses on all aspects related to advancement in hydrogeochemical processes in groundwater systems.

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.
