Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The accurate prediction of peak values in atmospheric and air quality studies is essential for understanding extreme environmental events, managing pollution levels, and mitigating climate-related risks. Despite significant advancements in numerical modeling and data analysis, predicting maximum concentrations and extreme fluctuations remains a challenging task due to complex interactions among atmospheric processes.
This Special Issue invites contributions focusing on innovative methodologies for predicting peak values in atmospheric and environmental systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Novel modeling techniques for extreme value prediction in atmospheric science;
- Statistical and data-driven approaches for forecasting peak concentrations;
- Applications of peak value prediction in air pollution monitoring and climate assessments;
- Integrating measurement data and computational models for improved forecasting;
- Case studies demonstrating advancements in maximum value prediction in urban and industrial environments.
We welcome both theoretical and applied research that enhances our ability to predict extreme atmospheric conditions, improving understanding of their implications for public health, environmental sustainability, and policy-making.
Dr. George Efthimiou
Guest Editor
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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
