Dear Colleagues,

The hydrological system is inherently complex and exhibits variability across a range of temporal and spatial scales. Understanding and predicting this variability is essential for assessing future changes in response to such changes as climate and anthropogenic land cover.

Entropy and associated methods may help to understand the range of variability of the hydrological system and the scales at which system organization occurs. In addition, understanding the propagation of uncertainty across scales, model-data comparisons and other relevant aspects of the application of entropy is of interest. These may include both thermodynamic as well as information theoretic applications of entropy to the hydrological sciences.

Key areas of interest include hydrological applications of:
Maximum entropy production
Extremum principles in hydrology
Information theory metrics: Shannon entropy, mutual Information, transfer entropy, etc.
Using entropy to assess scale issues
Entropy applications to model-data comparisons, particularly across scales

We seek to highlight the application of entropy techniques to the hydrological sciences and welcome your contributions to the special issue.

Submission

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on theInstructions for Authors page. Entropy is an international peer-reviewed Open Access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1200 CHF (Swiss Francs).
