Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental problems in the world, especially in developing countries with large populations and rapid economic growth. In recent years, severe haze weather in autumn and winter and ozone pollution in summer in China and South Asia have aroused widespread public concern. Remote sensing has the unique advantages of a relatively high spatiotemporal resolution and low cost; it has become an important technology for studying air pollution.
This Special Issue aims to showcase and summarize the current status of remote sensing for atmospheric environments, and to prospect and discuss future trends, potential applications and urgent scientific problems. We welcome papers on monitoring the spatiotemporal distributions of different air pollutants (e.g., PM2.5, O3, NOX, and NH3), revealing the mechanisms of their formation and diffusion, identifying high-risk areas of air pollution and exploring reasonable and effective prevention and control strategies using remote sensing technology. The main topics of interest include (1) monitoring the distributions and sources of air pollutants; (2) the environmental effects of air pollutants, such as the impact of nitrogen and phosphorus deposition on water quality; and (3) the cooperative observation of the atmosphere and terrestrial ecosystem. Contributions discussing related topics, still of interest in the field of the remote sensing of the atmospheric environment, are also 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. 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.
