The 'water' journal is planning a special issue of the MDPI WATER on Recent Advances in Flood Hazard and Risk Science. Therefore, its opening a call for papers to adapt and develop new methods and techniques to properly face the challenges of a new era, where capabilities for monitoring and modelling Earth processes have dramatically increased.

Scientific contributions should include (but not restricted to): theoretical and applied developments of hydrologic and hydrodynamic modelling including morphodynamics; post-event surveys; floods and related processes monitoring; flood frequency analysis; data mining and machine learning tools for hazard, exposure and vulnerability analysis; social networks and big data analysis for risk analysis and model calibration; palaeohydrology and geochronological dating techniques; geographical information systems; risk perception, risk communication, and dissemination.

You may send your manuscript now or up until the deadline (30.09.2021), submissions will be published immediately after acceptance in an ongoing basis. Water is fully open access (unlimited and free access by readers).

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has demonstrated the fragility of the supply chain generally and exposed the need to harden our social and technical systems, including the humanitarian supply chain, to respond. With this special collection, the Natural Hazards Review hopes to make a substantial contribution to the understanding of humanitarian supply chain knowledge as a sub-discipline of supply chain management theory and praxis. The topics covered here aim to improve international, national, and regional capacities for disaster risk analysis, management, and governance.

The American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE) is looking for forum articles, technical notes, technical papers and case studies.

Deadline: 30.11.2020

The open-access-Journal Sustainability is calling for papers for their Special Issue "Natural and Technological Hazards in Urban Areas: Assessment, Planning and Solutions". The Journal covers topics in the field of environmental, cultural, economic, and social sustainability of human beings. It provides an advanced forum for studies related to sustainability and sustainable development, and is published semi-monthly online by MDPI.

The Special Issue will focus on natural phenomena that potentially affect human life and activities in urban areas, technological hazards, hazard and risk assessment, prevention including protective measures, risk management technology, land use planning and 
concentrate innovative technologies in the field of disaster management. Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com, not have been previously published or considered for publication elsewhere, be well formatted and use good English.

Deadline for manuscript submission: 31.01.2021
