Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the second volume in a series of publications dedicated to “Ocean–Atmosphere–Land Interactions and Their Roles in Climate Change” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/atmosphere/special_issues/32JX05YZ4L).
The ocean, land and atmosphere are important components of the five spheres of the climate system, and sea–land–air interaction is an important driving force of climate change. Due to the complexity of the interaction processes between them, the mechanism of the interaction is yet to be understood. Nowadays, simulation and prediction ability in climate models in all countries are low, which directly restricts the improvement of climate prediction level. Therefore, in the context of global change, studying the mechanism and influence of sea–land–air interaction is a key way to understand climate anomalies, properly respond to global change, improve climate prediction levels, and improve disaster prevention and reduction.
This Special Issue invites contributions describing ocean–atmosphere–land interactions and their responses to climate change. Of special interest are processes of ocean–atmosphere dynamics and simulation methods, extreme weather events caused by climate change and their mechanisms, and the response of the marine environment to climate change. It is also concerned with the coupling mechanisms of land surface hydrology and climate (Including the impacts of climate change on hydrology and water resources, river geomorphological processes in response to global climate, and changes in river runoff, water, and sediment under the influence of climate change.). Additionally, it is also concerned with models and predictions of future atmosphere–ocean–land surfaces (hydrology, soil, ecology, etc.).

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. 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.
