ICWQ, WATER QUALITY

The International Commission on Water Quality (ICWQ) is a scientific commission of IAHS that advances the monitoring, modelling, assessment, and management of water quality in hydrological systems.

  • The Commission focuses on integrated space-air-ground monitoring systems, novel technologies for detecting pathogens and biological parameters, and methods for water quality assessment.
  • It also promotes research on transport and transformation processes of nutrients, contaminants, and emerging pollutants; ecological, climatic, and human impacts on water quality; and hybrid models coupling process-based water quality models with machine learning.
  • Its activities support integrated water quality management, including standards and assessment methodologies, smart and digital management systems, and water-quality issues in transboundary rivers.

Keywords: water quality monitoring; water quality modelling; hydro-biogeochemical processes; machine learning; water quality assessment; integrated water quality management.
