Aims & Scope
Mission
AWWA Water Science is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes original, refereed (peer-reviewed) research on the science, engineering, and social aspects of water.
Scope
AWS publishes research exploring theoretical, experimental, and practical approaches that advance fundamental understanding and application of all aspects of water works and any source water that could conceivably become a potable water supply. The scope of AWS focuses on the physical, chemical, biological, and ecological processes that affect the quantity and quality of potable water. The scope of research published in AWS also includes the application of fundamental science, engineering, and social principles to managerial, policy, and public health issues that affect and are affected by water. Besides review articles, original research published in AWS typically is based upon measurement and modeling that develops or applies theoretical and applied principles to advance the scholarship of the water industry. AWS serves as an international forum for knowledge exchange and innovation, and manuscript submissions are evaluated for their practical significance, novelty, accuracy, collaboration, and the broader implications of the reported findings.
Topics of interest include:
· Treatment processes for municipal water, wastewater, and reuse — Chemical, physical and biological methods
· Water quality monitoring, assessment, and improvement
· Chemical and microbial contaminant discovery, evaluation, fate, and transport
· Waterworks monitoring, assessment, and improvement
· Public health and risk assessments of water and waterworks
· Premise plumbing issues and consumer water quality
· Applied mathematical modeling and system analysis techniques for water and waterworks
· Socio-economic studies pertinent to water and waterworks
· Aspects of potable and non-potable water reuse
· Sustainability of water resources and water works
· Water conservation and drought response
· Finance/rates for water and waterworks
· New materials or technologies (instruments, sensors, waterworks components, etc.)
· Decision-making frameworks for water use and water works design, operation, and management
· Planning and design innovations for waterworks
· Hydraulics of water works
The target audience includes:
· Waterworks researchers
Academics/faculty and utility/manufacturer research departments
Consultant research groups and regulatory research labs
· Larger research community
Academic areas: chemistry, biology, engineering, environmental science
Applied areas: chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, microbiologists, modelers
