Stable and radioactive isotopes are useful tools to fingerprint the source of water and solutes in catchments, to trace their flow pathways and to quantify exchanges of water, solutes and particulates between hydrological compartments. Papers are invited that demonstrate the application of isotope techniques in field studies or modelling in the areas of surface / groundwater interactions, rainfall-runoff processes, nutrient or contaminant export, lake or river mass balance etc.
