Aims and Scope

The Journal of Water and Soil Management and Modeling (Water Soil Manage Model), established in 2021, is a double-blind peer-reviewed quarterly journal, owned, managed & published by Water Management Research Center, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili. The journal publishes research, review, case study, methodologies, applied, viewpoint, and technical papers containing significant results relevant to the water and soil management. Publication of scientific achievements in the field of water and soil management as the main pillars of natural resources and human welfare to produce science and create indigenous management models, eliminate or reduce the destructive effects of ecosystem development, protection, restoration, and management are objectives of the scientific journal. This journal welcomes all research related to the topics of natural resource management, watershed management, rangeland management, and water and soil engineering. The journal scope includes but are not restricted to, the following areas:

  • Water and Soil Modeling
