Please consider submitting a manuscript to the upcoming Special Issue in the Journal of Hydrology on “Groundwater flow and reactive solute transport processes in hyporheic zone”.
Water Institute member Fereidoun Rezanezhad, Research Associate Professor, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, is serving as guest editor for the special issue together with Dr. Zhang Wen (China University of Geosciences), Dr. Stefan Krause (Birmingham University) and Dr. Hui Liu (China University of Geosciences).
The Special Issue aims to synthesize the current state of knowledge about hyporheic exchange and its environmental effects and encourages contributions related, but not limited, to the following research topics:
- Techniques for monitoring, tracing and analyzing the hyporheic processes with complicated effects such as the construction of water conservancy facilities and karst formation;
- Deep analyses of the influencing mechanisms of both anthropogenic and natural effects on the groundwater and reactive solute transport processes;
- Biogeochemical regulation of migration and transformation of reactive substances for the purpose of revealing the roles of hyporheic zone in the water quality security and the ecological safety of benthic microfauna and riparian vegetation in the watershed;
- High-precision numerical simulation techniques for hyporheic mass transport and their promotion of strategies for environmental protection in the hyporheic zone;
- Hyporheic zone processes in cold regions, frozen rivers, and permafrost areas.
Please don’t hesitate to contact Fereidoun Rezanezhad, if you would like additional information about this Special Issue. The editorial team would greatly value your contribution.

Manuscript submission deadline is April 30,2023.
