Water presents a comprehensive overview of the industry including scientific, research and other technical papers, industry reports, news and happenings in a high quality magazine format. It keeps readers informed about developments in the water and wastewater industry both in Australia and overseas, with eight issues per year.

As the flagship publication of the Australian Water Association, the Water Journal uniquely services the water sector. It is published eight times a year and circulates to over 5,000 members of the Australian Water Association, as well as state and university libraries, Ministers of Resources and Environment, selected environment groups, overseas affiliated organisations, allied learned societies, industry associations, selected government agencies, media and trade agencies.

Distribution

Readership is conservatively estimated at 15,000 people in the water sector including senior managers, engineering staff and plant operators.

The magazine has been published continuously since 1973 and enjoys a unique relationship with the Australian water industry. Articles in Water are written by scientists, engineers, policy experts and other water professionals.

The quality of the technical articles means that Water is retained by readers for future reference, a major benefit for advertisers.

Advertising in the Water Journal is the most effective and targeted way of reaching the decision-makers in the water industry. If you are serious about building sales in the water industry, then Water can assist you.

Back Issues

Copies of Water Journal, including back issues, are available from the AWA Bookshop for $12.50 plus postage and handling.  Email bookshop@awa.asn.au

Editorial Submissions – Technical Papers

Water Journal welcomes editorial submissions for technical and topical articles, news, opinion pieces, business information and letters to the editor. Acceptance of editorial submissions is at the discretion of the editor and editorial board.

Industry News, Opinion pieces, Media Releases AND Letters to the Editor

Editor, Water Journal journal@awa.asn.au

Technical Papers and Features

Bob Swinton, Technical Editor, Water Journal bswinton@bigpond.net.au AND journal@awa.asn.au

Papers 3,000-4,000 words and graphics; or topical articles of up to 2,000 words relating to all areas of the water cycle and water business. Submissions are tabled at monthly editorial board meetings and where appropriate are assigned referees. Referee comments will be forwarded to the principal author for further action.

Authors should be mindful that Water is published in a 3 column ‘magazine’ format rather than the full-page format of Word documents. Graphics should be set up so that they will still be clearly legible when reduced to two-column size (about 12cm wide). Tables and figures need to be numbered with the appropriate reference in the text e.g. see Figure 1, not just placed in the text with a (see below) reference as they may end up anywhere on the page when typeset.
