Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The diversity of physical processes that characterize a coastal area make it a dynamic and complex environment. In these areas, complex physical processes related to the interactions between the sea, the coastline, and river mouths materialize. In addition to natural phenomena, the anthropogenic effects are often to be considered. Indeed, in a period of increasing anthropogenic pressure, these coastal environment's high social, economic, and ecological values may be threatened.
In this context, this Special Issue intends to collect original works and reviews that aim to contribute to the state of the art of the sustainable management of coastal areas. Studies from different scientific areas are encouraged.
Possible topics of interest are as follows:
- Numerical tools for coastal management;
- Marine and coastal ecosystem services;
- Quality of bathing waters;
- Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of coastal areas;
- Climate change adaptation strategies;
- Coastal defense systems;
- Coastal infrastructures;
- Coastal pollution;
- Coastal biodiversity;
- Coastal sediment transport;
- Coastal monitoring.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 2600 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.
