Science of the Total Environment is an international journal for publication of original research on the total environment, which includes the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, lithosphere, and anthroposphere.The total environment is characterized where these five spheres overlap. Studies that focus on at least two or three of these will be given primary consideration. Papers reporting results from only one sphere will not be considered. Field studies are given priority over laboratory studies. The total environment is studied when data are collected and described from these five spheres. By definition total environment studies must be multidisciplinary.Examples of data from the five spheres are given below:Subject areas may include, but are not limited to:• Agriculture, forestry, land use and management• Air pollution quality and human health• Contaminant (bio)monitoring and assessment• Ecosystem services and life cycle assessments• Ecotoxicology and risk assessment• Emerging fields including global change and contaminants• Environmental management and policy• Environmental remediation• Environmental sources, processes and global cycling• Groundwater hydrogeochemistry and modeling• Human health risk assessment and management• Nanomaterials in the environment• Noise in the environment• Persistent organic pollutants• Plant science and toxicology• Remote sensing• Stress ecology in marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems• Trace metals and organics in biogeochemical cycles• Waste and water treatmentThe editors discourage submission of papers which describe results from routine surveys or monitoring programs, studies which are local in scope, laboratory experiments, hydroponic or pot studies measuring biochemical/physiological endpoints, food science studies, screening of new plant species for phytoremediation, testing known chemicals in another setting, and experimental studies lacking a testable hypothesis.The abstract, highlights and conclusions of papers in this journal must contain clear and concise statements as to why the study was done and how readers will benefit from the results. Articles submitted for publication in Science of the Total Environment should establish connections among research findings with implications for environmental quality, ecological health, and/or human health.
Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment publishes research papers, reviews and technical notes on stochastic and probabilistic approaches to environmental sciences and engineering, including interactions of earth and atmospheric environments with people and ecosystems. Its core aim is to bring together stochastic modeling research papers in various fields of environmental sciences and to provide an interdisciplinary forum for the exchange of ideas, for communicating on issues that cut across disciplinary barriers, and for the dissemination of stochastic techniques used in different fields to the community of interested researchers. Coverage includes modeling, measurements and instrumentation in the areas of Spatiotemporal analysis and mapping of natural processes; Enviroinformatics; Environmental risk assessment, reliability analysis and decision making; Surface and subsurface hydrology and hydraulics; Multiphase porous media domains and contaminant transport modeling; and more. See full Aims
Strategic Planning for Energy and the Environment is a quarterly publication of the Association of Energy Engineers, Atlanta, GA. The journal invites original manuscripts involving strategic energy management issues such as management or energy policy.
Sustainable Energy & Fuels publishes high quality scientific research that will drive the development of sustainable energy technologies, with a particular emphasis on innovative concepts and approaches. The journal is an essential resource for energy researchers and cuts across chemistry and its interfaces with materials science, physics and biology – covering evolving and emerging areas such as the following: • Solar energy conversion including photovoltaics and artificial photosynthesis • Energy storage including batteries, flow batteries and supercapacitors • Catalysis for energy technologies, including the sustainable synthesis of fuels and chemicals, and molecular/bioinspired catalysis • Electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and thermal catalysis • Fuel cells • Hydrogen production, storage and distribution • Carbon dioxide utilisation, including fuels and chemicals from carbon dioxide • Biorefining and Biofuels • Capacitive desalination and desalination batteries • Other sustainable energy conversion technologies including thermochemical, piezoelectric and thermoelectric materials and devices Energy science and technologies that avoid the use of critical raw elements or detrimental environmental effects during preparation, manufacture and end-of-life are particularly encouraged.
Papers from engineers, natural and social scientists as well as philosophers are invited and those at the interface between these disciplines are particularly encouraged. Types of article published by the journal include original research, perspectives, short communications, policy and review papers. All papers should include some elements of life cycle thinking and should clearly demonstrate that they are addressing topics related to sustainable production and consumption. Note that papers on end-of-pipe treatment technologies are outside the scope.

Waste Management & Research (WM&R) publishes articles relating to both the theory and practice of waste management and research. Published on behalf of the International Solid Waste Association (ISWA) topics include: wastes (focus on solids), processes and technologies, management systems and tools, and policy and regulatory frameworks, sustainable waste management designs, operations, policies or practices.
Waste & Biomass Valorization is devoted to the growing field of valorization of waste and biomass to energy, fuels and other useful materials, with emphasis on processes and practices that reduce emissions and life cycle assessment of technologies and materials. Research on the characterization of fuels and materials produced as well as those on the development of characterization techniques will be also welcomed. Topic areas to be covered by the journal include, but are not limited to: Valorization of waste and biomass municipal, wastewater industrial, electronic, wood and paper, sludge, agricultural, forest, construction and demolition, mining Valorization of energy and fuels ethanol, hydrogen, biogas, biofuel, refuse-derived Fuel/Oil (RD, RDO), thermal processes products Valorization of materials raw materials, secondary materials, recycled materials Key issues will be cutting-edge research on life cycle and risk assessment, health and safety impact assessment, decision-making, legislation and education. High quality research articles, reviews, case studies (both pilot-plant and full-scale) will be accepted for review. The Journal will promote interdisciplinarity and bridging of various fields of engineering science including Environmental, Chemical, Civil Engineering, and Management Science. The Journal will also be of interest to n, on-academic groups such as industry, local and national government interested in the beneficial use and reuse of residues, biomass and waste.
Water Science and Technology is IWA Publishing’s Flagship journal with a long history in publishing quality peer reviewed papers on all aspects of the science and technology of wastewater and stormwater management worldwide.

The Water and Environment Journal is an internationally recognised peer-reviewed journal for the dissemination of innovations and solutions focussed on enhancing water management best practice. The journal provides a conduit between academics and practitioners. We therefore particularly encourage contributions focussed at the interface between academia and industry, which deliver industrially impactful applied research underpinned by scientific evidence. We are keen to attract papers on a broad range of subjects including water and wastewater treatment, water recycling, sludge treatment, water management and much more.
