Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change directly or indirectly affects various research fields. Since the pioneering work carried out in 1960s and 1970s, the climate model has become a critical tool to improve our understanding of climate change from seasonal to even longer timescales. We could use climate modeling tools to study the climate system, its components, and their interaction behavior. Models of the various components of the climate system may be coupled to produce increasingly complex models, such as the Earth system model, which is the nucleus of the most complex atmosphere and ocean models, and carbon cycle processes. Advanced climate modeling and observations can improve accurate prediction of climate change and long-term trends.
To further our understanding of our climate changing system, we are calling for original research papers related to climate modeling and observations in this Special Issue. This includes the multidisciplinary exercise of global climate models (GCMs) and regional climate models (RCMs), mitigation studies of extreme weather events, more sophisticated future predictions and projections of the earth system by coupling with other Earth system components, and some new artificial intelligence, such as artificial neural networks, random forest, and support vector machines.

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. Climate 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 1800 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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
