Theme & topics

Theme: Digital solutions in hydrology and sustainable water management

Topic 1. Exploring digital frontiers in water resources, water quality and ecohydrology 

To enhance our understanding and management of water systems, we welcome contributions that explore cutting-edge digital methods, tools, and platforms. Topics of interest include remote sensing, in-situ sensor networks, data assimilation, digital twins, AI and machine learning applications, and real-time data solutions—spanning hydrology, water quality, and aquatic ecosystems. We especially encourage cross-sectoral approaches that integrate environmental science, information and communication technology (ICT), and systems thinking. 

Topic 2. Hydrology for a changing world: observations, models, and decision support 

As climate change, evolving land use, and societal demands reshape our environment, hydrological science plays a critical role in understanding and responding to these challenges. We invite contributions on new observation strategies, model development and calibration, uncertainty analysis, and co-designed decision support systems. Interdisciplinary approaches linking hydrology with social sciences, policy, and economics are highly welcome to strengthen relevance and usability. 

Topic 3. Solutions for water resource management and pathways for societal impact 

Achieving sustainable and inclusive water governance requires practical solutions that bridge policy, science, and community action. We welcome contributions on integrated water management, nature-based solutions, stakeholder engagement, policy innovation, and socio-environmental transitions. Special appreciation is placed on contributions that leverage digital technologies, participatory processes, and cross-sector collaboration to create meaningful, real-world impact
