Water supports three basic pillars of our life and survival: safety, security, and sustainability. Hence, it is extremely important to revisit the fundamental characteristics of water in order to discover additional information and the characteristics water has that will help uncover pathways to support safety, security, and future survivability. While the fundamental physical and chemical properties of water continue to reveal new aspects, it is critical that we review these properties in the context of recent applications to address global challenges.

The Handbook of Research on Water Sciences and Society serves as a comprehensive knowledge base on the latest fundamental and applied research and scientific innovations regarding the relationships between society and water resources, safe and sustainable use of water, watershed stewardship, industrial application, and public health awareness. Covering a wide range of topics such as the properties and structure of water, it is an ideal resource for researchers, professionals, policymakers, scientists, practitioners, instructors, and students.
