#HydrolinkMagazine
Hydrolink is the primary magazine of the IAHR community and one of the highest-rated member benefits. It brings you the latest developments in the field of hydro-environment engineering and research through articles on projects, research, and new methods and tools of interest to the community. It also provides a platform for reporting on IAHR Conferences and news from our members, and offers a forum for exchanging information and spreading the word on topics and projects relevant to the community.
The online version of Hydrolink is open to non-members since 2021 as part of the efforts of the association to disseminate and share knowledge. In addition to the online version, IAHR members will continue to receive their full colour printed copy at their desks periodically as a membership benefit.

Water has an impact on many different areas of climate mitigation, including variations in atmospheric conditions, temperature regulation, carbon removal, and ecosystem services. Water resource preservation and management are essential components of any comprehensive plan to address climate change. Given that water use, distribution, storage, and treatment all contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, climate mitigation is quickly becoming a priority in the water sector. Mitigation is especially important for water-related renewable energy, water-energy nexus efficiency, and carbon emissions and storage in water ecosystems.
The present issue of Hydrolink looks into some of the ways that water engineering supports sustainable climate change mitigation efforts. This includes the impact of climate change on urban water demand and how digital transition in urban water supply can mitigate climate change; the role of hydropower energy production; the development of new technologies using currents and waves for marine energy supply; the role of interaction between river dynamics and terrestrial ecosystems on the global carbon cycle; and how cold region engineers work on innovative solutions that balance the need for development with the protection of fragile glacial environments.
