Journal of the American Water Resources Association (JAWRA)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of the American Water Resources Association (JAWRA) is a long‑standing, bimonthly, peer‑reviewed academic journal that serves as the flagship research publication of the American Water Resources Association (AWRA), in partnership with John Wiley & Sons. Since its inception in the mid‑1960s, JAWRA has been dedicated to advancing knowledge on water resources through multidisciplinary research that integrates scientific understanding with management and policy insights. The journal publishes original articles that address a wide array of water‑related topics such as hydrologic modeling, water quality assessment, watershed and ecosystem management, water governance, climate change adaptation, quantitative methods, and socio‑economic aspects of water use. By bringing together work from hydrology, environmental science, engineering, economics, law, and public policy, JAWRA provides a forum for scholars and practitioners to explore problems that transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries. With a bimonthly publishing cycle, the journal ensures timely dissemination of high‑quality research that informs scientific debate, decision‑making, and practice in water resources. Its articles are widely indexed and cited, making it a key resource for academics, government agencies, consulting professionals, and NGOs engaged in water science and resource planning. In addition to regular research, JAWRA also features special issues and collections that spotlight emerging challenges such as drought management, watershed resilience, and integrated water systems modeling.
