Environmental journals: open calls for papers

Non-exhaust emissions from road traffic are an emerging issue for air quality and public health. Although their relative toxicity has not been well separated from other traffic emissions (exhaust), their contribution to the concentration of air pollutants is increasing relative to other types of sources, hampering effective improvements in air quality in urban areas. It is therefore necessary to improve our knowledge on the current impact of such substances in the air we breathe and the potential of technological and non-technological measures.

Environmental Science: Atmospheres covers the full breadth of atmospheric science and links fundamental and applied research. Authors are welcome to submit original research as a Communication article or Full Paper or contribute a review article. Please contact the editorial office to register your interest or for more information. Alternatively, you can submit a manuscript below.

As climate change emerges as an existential issue, with amplified challenges facing urban water systems, understanding, appreciation, and interventions in this critical sector need to be improved. This themed collection aims to combine research from across a range of methodologies to better inform responses to climate change while unpacking the complexities of assessing the impacts of climate extremes, variability, and change on urban risk, city vulnerability, and adaptation strategies.

We welcome interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary articles that leverage knowledge from various fields to advance understanding in the nexus of climate change, water, and cities, and contribute to resilient urban water management.

We welcome original research papers, communications, and Review articles.

Wastewater surveillance for public health has been a key tool in tracking SARS-CoV-2 infection dynamics and COVID-19 prevalence in communities since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, with traditional diagnostic surveillance programs scaling down, insights from wastewater will be even more crucial for COVID-19. Simultaneously, the wastewater surveillance footprint is expanding to include other microorganisms and human pathogens.

The global interest and widespread application of wastewater surveillance throughout this period has resulted in unprecedented advances in the field. Accordingly, this special issue of ESWRT calls for papers that create new knowledge and/or reflections through case studies, laboratory investigations, data synthesis and analysis, and/or modeling. We seek original studies that advance the field of wastewater surveillance, critical reviews that identify forward looking research gaps and opportunities, and perspectives that establish new paradigms and thinking on the potential applications of wastewater surveillance for public health.

We welcome original research papers, communications, and Review articles.
