AWWA Water Science (AWS) is an interdisciplinary journal that features original, peer-reviewed research on the science, engineering, and social aspects of water.
AWWA Water Science topical collections are collections of articles on similar topics that fall under the guidance of AWS. Although review papers can also be part of a special collection, it is expected that the majority of articles published as a special collection will consist of new and previously un-reviewed material.
