Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The scientific community has a growing awareness of the importance of atmosphere–ocean interactions for geophysical processes at various scales. The increasing availability of observational as well as reanalysis data and the recent advancements in numerical modelling are opening new frontiers of study for the coupled atmosphere–ocean system. By allowing two-way feedback between atmosphere and ocean, it is possible to disentangle the drivers and teleconnections from the scale of the single, local event up to the climate dynamics. Achievements in these fields provide an improvement in our understanding of multidisciplinary processes and eventual management and operational services, including weather forecast and early warning systems, e.g., for river floods and storm surge in coastal regions.
With this development, we believe it is timely to assemble some of the most recent research findings in the form of a Special Issue titled “Disentangling Atmosphere-Ocean Interactions, from Weather to Climate” in MDPI Atmosphere. We cordially invite our colleagues to submit manuscripts in this field with original research results or review papers on the state-of-the-art techniques, innovative approaches, multidisciplinary applications, and upcoming challenges in atmosphere–ocean interactions at different scales. Example topics for papers in this Special Issue include but not limited to the following:
- Air–sea interaction parameterizations and coupled atmosphere–ocean numerical modelling approaches;
- Coupled atmosphere–ocean applications for coastal and offshore engineering;
- Analysis of extreme met-oceanic events and their impacts on anthropic infrastructures;
- Operational met-ocean modelling and monitoring;
- Role of air–sea interactions in heat transport and storage;
- Weather and/or climate impact on the ocean and feedback from the ocean to the atmosphere.

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.
