Marine Pollution, Bioremediation and Ecosystem Restoration

Dear Colleagues,

The Special Issue calls for a collaborative exploration of the complex challenges associated with marine pollution and its impacts on aquatic ecosystems. It will feature innovative bioremediation techniques and strategies for ecosystem restoration, aiming to consolidate recent advancements in research and practice. This Special Issue is designed to be a valuable resource for researchers and academics specializing in marine science and environmental management by addressing both theoretical and practical aspects. We invite you to be part of this collective effort, contribute your expertise and experiences, and join us in advancing the field.

This Special Issue will serve as a focal point for diverse perspectives, situating within broader discussions on marine pollution and ecosystem restoration. Its goal is to advance the field by showcasing the latest innovations in bioremediation, analyzing effective ecosystem restoration case studies, and assessing the strengths and limitations of current methods. The potential impact of your contributions to this issue is significant. Your insights can shape the future of marine science and environmental management. By integrating insights from various disciplines, this Special Issue aims to bridge existing gaps in the literature and open new avenues for future research and practical application. It will build on established knowledge while addressing new challenges arising from climate change, industrial activities, and other human-induced factors that exacerbate marine pollution.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
