Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Predicting precipitation from a dynamic perspective requires adopting dynamic system theories after examining the evolvement of weather patterns over time. The aim is to forecast precipitation by considering the complex interactions between different climate variables (relative humidity, sea surface temperature, sea level pressure, and wind) and their dynamic changes. Consequently, numerous models on precipitation prediction have been developed incorporating climatic variables.

The progress made in the dynamics of precipitation forecasting will be explored in the open-access journal Atmosphere, which is hosting a Special Issue entitled “Precipitation Prediction from a Dynamic Perspective”. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide details of recent advancements in precipitation dynamics adopting non-linear modelling techniques that account for the role of large-scale atmospheric processes. This topic comprises numerous linear and non-linear modelling approaches and multivariate methods, including the extreme value analysis of precipitation. This topic is also highly relevant to different engineering applications, such as the design of stormwater infrastructure, flood and drought assessments, and the adoption of appropriate construction techniques.

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.
