Message from the Guest Editors
Water is a scarce natural resource, essential for life and for
the vast majority of economic activities; it is irreplaceable,
not expandable by the mere will of man, irregular in its way
of presenting itself in time and space, easily vulnerable,
and susceptible to successive uses. Only 3.5% of the earth's
water is fresh, but of this percentage, 70% is in glaciers and
polar caps. The remaining 30% is found in the subsoil,
wells or aquifers. Only 1% of the earth's freshwater flows
through river basins in the form of streams and rivers...
Conflicts over competition for water use are likely to
increase as societies grapple with social, economic, and
political challenges, especially compounded by climate
change...
In summary, this Special Issue invites the submission of
articles examining trends and initiatives in Integrated
Water Resources Management, employing original
methodologies and offering interesting empirical insights
and novel theoretical contributions.

management of water cycles, going from global and
regional water cycles to urban, industrial and agricultural
water cycles, plays a very important role on the water
resources and on their relationships with food, energy,
biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and human health.
Water invites authors to provide innovative original full
articles, critical reviews and timely short communications
and to propose special issues devoted to new
technological and scientific domains and to
interdisciplinary approaches of the water cycles. We ensure
a critical review process and a quick turnaround between
submission and final decision.
