About the Journal

Hydro-Environmental Systems & Solutions (HESS) is an international, interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing scientific understanding and practical innovation at the nexus of water, land, environment, and society. Bridging hydraulics, environmental systems, and sustainable development, HESS serves as a dynamic platform for original research, transformative ideas, and integrated solutions that address today’s most pressing hydro-environmental challenges.

In an era shaped by climate change, resource degradation, and growing demands on land and water systems, HESS fosters rigorous inquiry and knowledge exchange across disciplinary and geographical boundaries. The journal highlights both fundamental advances and applied breakthroughs in water infrastructure, soil–water–crop systems, watershed management, climate resilience, and emerging smart technologies.

HESS especially emphasizes research with real-world relevance—where scientific rigor meets practical implementation. We welcome contributions that reflect the complexity of natural and human systems, integrating physical processes with ecological, socio-economic, and policy dimensions. The journal values diversity in perspectives, methods, and contexts, and encourages collaborative, cross-sectoral work that supports sustainable development goals and ecosystem stewardship.
