Please consider submitting an abstract for the Special Issue Innovating a New Knowledge Base for Water Justice Studies: Hydrosocial, Sociohydrology, and Beyond. The aim of this Research Topic is to cover new developments in the wide spectrum of sociohydrology and hydrosocial co-practice for more just, equitable, and resilient water systems. We invite modelers to examine the analytical potential of their work; we also invite social scientists to consider the value of their work to develop plausible future scenarios, as well as to engage in interdisciplinary collaborations. We are especially interested in case studies of water justice collaborations that bridge transdisciplinary gaps.
Timeline for submissions
Abstract submission is now open and will close on 19th December 2021. Please upload a cover letter with author bios and an abstract (max 1000 words) to https://tinyurl.com/waterjusticeSI. The abstract should provide some information on its distinctive contribution to the themes of the proposed SI. The Editors will review the abstract within two weeks of submission and invite authors that explicitly engage with the themes of the SI to submit a full paper. The deadline for Manuscript submission is July 25 2022 and papers will be published as soon as they are accepted.
