In the modern era, water quality indices and models have received attention from environmentalists, policymakers, governments, stakeholders, water resource planners, and managers for their ability to evaluate the water quality of freshwater bodies. Due to their wide applicability, models are generally developed based on site-specific guidelines and are not generic; therefore, predicted/calculated values are reported to be highly uncertain. Thus, model and/or index formulation are still challenging and represent a current research hotspot in the scientific community. The inspiration for this Special Issue came from our desire to provide a platform for sharing results and informing young minds around the world to develop suitable models to understand water quality so that mitigation measures can be taken in advance to make water fit for drinking and for life-supporting activities.
