Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology is owned by the Geological Society of London and published by 
the Geological Society Publishing House.
Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology & Hydrogeology (QJEGH) is an established peer reviewed international journal featuring papers on geology as applied to civil engineering mining practice and water resources. Papers are invited from, and about, all areas of the world on engineering geology and hydrogeology topics. This includes but is not limited to: applied geophysics, engineering geomorphology, environmental geology, hydrogeology, groundwater quality, ground source heat, contaminated land, waste management, land use planning, geotechnics, rock mechanics, geomaterials and geological hazards.
The journal publishes the prestigious Glossop and Ineson lectures, research papers, case histories, review articles, technical notes, photographic features, thematic sets, discussion papers, editorial opinion and book reviews.

Developments in Measurement and Monitoring – CALL FOR PAPERS
Save
Digital, real-time, acquisition of environmental data, and the computing capacity to process those data, have revolutionized the way that environmental science can be undertaken. All these data streams rely on sensors and monitoring installations for the raw inputs. QJEGH proposes to publish a thematic set of papers that explores the range of methods and instrumentation now available to engineering geologists and hydrogeologists. These might include, for example:
- Remote sensing (satellite data, LIDAR, or drone-acquired data)
- Real-time monitoring of pore water pressures, or groundwater level
- monitoring
- Real-time and novel monitoring of displacements, strains, or total
- stresses
- Real-time and novel monitoring of water quality
- Novel methods for borehole water sampling
- Novel geophysical methods
- Sensors to enable monitoring via the internet and control within smart cities and infrastructure
Papers will form a thematic set in the Journal, with the aim to be published in August 2019.
All accepted papers will be published online first, ahead of the printed issue.
Abstracts of suitable papers should be sent no later than 30th March 2018 to: Helen Floyd-Walker, QJEGH Production Editor.
Authors will be contacted by early April 2018 to confirm the suitability of their abstracts. For those deemed suitable, full papers should then be prepared in accordance with the normal QJEGH guidelines
And submitted for review no later than 31st August 2018.
