Island and coastal areas face unique hydrological challenges, including water scarcity, pollution, and saltwater intrusion, which are exacerbated by marine pollution. These challenges pose significant threats to the development and well-being of local communities. With environmental pressures from both natural and anthropogenic changes intensifying, effective water resource management and pollution control have become pressing priorities.
Due to the geographical and environmental constraints of island and coastal regions, there is a critical need for innovative and integrated approaches that address both water scarcity and marine pollution. These approaches should foster interdisciplinary collaboration and be driven by policy strategies aimed at managing water resources and mitigate pollution to ensuring the resilience and sustainability of these regions. Such strategies are crucial for achieving sustainable development and maintaining ecological stability in these vulnerable regions.
This research topic aims to conduct an in-depth exploration of innovative and integrated water resource management and pollution control strategies that address the hydrological and environmental challenges in islands and coastal regions. The goal is to promote resilience to climate change, sustainable development, and ecological stability.
We invites contributions that specifically explore the impact and effectiveness of water resource management and pollution control strategies in islands and coastal regions, with an emphasis on innovative solutions and successful case studies. Submissions that utilize interdisciplinary approaches are particularly encouraged, integrating insights from environmental science, engineering, social sciences, and economics to develop comprehensive solutions that enhance water resource management and marine pollution control. Research topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
• The impacts of climate change on water resource management and pollution control in islands and coastal regions.
• Innovative water management technologies and their applications in ensuring water security and reducing pollution in island and coastal ecosystems.
• The role and impact of integrated management strategies on water resources and pollution control in islands and coastal regions.
• Case studies of innovative approaches to monitoring, controlling, and mitigating marine pollution, including the use of emerging technologies and policy-driven initiatives.
