The Water Quality Research Journal publishes peer-reviewed, scholarly articles on the following general subject areas:Impact of current and emerging contaminants on aquatic ecosystemsAquatic ecology (ecohydrology and ecohydraulics, invasive species, biodiversity, and aquatic species at risk)Conservation and protection of aquatic environmentsResponsible resource development and water quality (mining, forestry, hydropower, oil and gas)Drinking water, wastewater and stormwater treatment technologies and strategiesImpacts and solutions of diffuse pollution (urban and agricultural run-off) on water qualityIndustrial water qualityUsed water: Reuse and resource recoveryGroundwater quality (management, remediation, fracking, legacy contaminants)Assessment of surface and subsurface water qualityRegulations, economics, strategies and policies related to water qualitySocial science issues in relation to water qualityWater quality in remote areasWater quality in cold climatesThe Water Quality Research Journal is a quarterly publication. It is a forum for original research dealing with the aquatic environment, and should report new and significant findings that advance the understanding of the field. Critical review articles are especially encouraged.
