Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

IJHST is a peer-reviewed international journal covering research and practical studies on hydrological science, technology, water resources and related topics including water, air and soil pollution and hazardous waste issues. IJHST was initiated to communicate ideas, findings, methods, techniques or summaries of interesting projects or investigations in the area of hydrology.

 Go Top  Objectives

The main objective of IJHST is the promotion of hydrological science and technology through challenging traditional and conventional methods and publishing new methods in global, regional and national changing climates. IJHST covers the effects of urbanisation, agriculture, industry, forestry, etc., and the research undertaken and needed to better define their effects on water resources.

IJHST allows the viewpoints of cities, factories, farmers, fisheries, foresters, etc. to be brought together to answer questions about how technical problems are addressed and solved, and how management issues are decided between competing hydrological resources. IJHST aims to strengthen the partnerships between water scientists, engineers, geologists, chemists, biologists and the other disciplines to develop current hydrology methods. It helps define the knowledge that is required to make informed hydrological decisions.

 Go Top  Readership

IJHST provides a vehicle to help professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers to disseminate information and to learn from each other's work. Such a readership will be working in the field of hydrological technology management, science, engineering and business education as surface hydrologists, groundwater hydrologists, hydrometeorologists, hydrogeologists, agrometeorologists, environmental scientists, physical geographers, agricultural hydrologists, ecohydrologists, river engineers, environmental geologists, hydroecologists, civil engineers and environmental statisticians.

 Go Top  Contents

IJHST publishes original papers, review papers, technical reports, notes and case studies. Special Issues devoted to important topics in hydrological technology science and engineering will occasionally be published.
