Linking Upper Ocean Dynamics with Extreme Weather and Climate Events over the Ocean (Second Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

Extreme weather and climate events have a huge impact on the earth system and on human society. These occurrences often lead to natural hazards, underscoring the significance of studying such extreme weather and climate phenomena.

In the coupled earth system, extreme weather events and climate patterns trigger responses evident in the upper ocean. The feedback, whether positive or negative, plays a crucial role in the development of extreme weather and climate events. Furthermore, the complexities of ocean dynamics, spanning multiple scales, further emphasize the importance of understanding the interplay between ocean and extreme weather and climate events. New methodological and technological developments, including but not limited to, remote sensing, in situ observation, numerical modelling and artificial intelligence, have facilitated our understanding of these extreme events.

This Special Issue aims to publish research articles addressing the role the ocean plays in the occurrence, development, and prediction of extreme events. Field work, satellite remote sensing, theoretical derivation, and numerical modelling studies, aimed at better understanding the phenomena and processes of coupled atmosphere–ice–ocean system and their related interactions are all welcome. As a new path, deep learning or other new artificial intelligence technologies are particularly welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Remote Sensing is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
