# Journal of Hydrology (journal-of-hydrology)

## Journal positioning

Journal of Hydrology is Elsevier's broad-scope outlet for the hydrological sciences,
covering surface and subsurface hydrology, hydrometeorology, water quality, hydrological
modeling, and observational hydrology across catchment to continental scales. Its defining
expectation is a **sound, useful hydrological advance** — a process insight, a method, a
dataset-driven analysis, or an applied result that improves how hydrologic systems are
understood, predicted, or managed; it deliberately accommodates process, observational,
methodological, and applied studies more broadly than AGU's Water Resources Research, whose
bar is fundamental water-science novelty. A well-executed regional study can fit here if it
yields transferable lessons or clear hydrological insight, even without a wholly new theory.
This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the
