Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to) the economics of:
- Aquatic ecosystem services
- Blue economy
- Climate change and flood risk management
- Climate smart agriculture
- Coastal management
- Droughts and water scarcity
- Environmental flows
- Eutrophication
- Food, water, energy nexus
- Groundwater management
- Hydropower generation
- Hydrological risks and uncertainties
- Marine resources
- Nature-based solutions
- Resource recovery
- River restoration
- Storm water harvesting
- Transboundary water allocation
- Urban water management
- Wastewater treatment
- Watershed management
- Water health risks
- Water pollution
- Water quality management
- Water security
- Water stress
- Water technology innovation
The journal is targeted at economists, engineers, natural and social scientists interested in water resources management. Papers should deal with the changing value of water in its different uses and the evaluation of economic tradeoffs, aiming for the creation of water resource management strategies that are ecologically, socially and economically sustainable.
