Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The air–sea interface plays a crucial role in shaping the Earth's climate system. The exchange of heat, momentum, gases, and moisture between the atmosphere and the ocean, including the sub-surface layer, drives significant weather phenomena. In addition, the ocean heat content plays a crucial role in major atmospheric processes, such as cyclones and monsoons. This Special Issue seeks to advance our understanding of the physical, thermo-dynamic, chemical, and biological processes that govern air–sea interactions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, these following subjects:
- Dynamics of air–sea interactions: the investigation of the underlying mechanisms and feedback processes involved in the exchange of energy, momentum, and mass at the air–sea interface;
- Ocean–atmosphere coupling: the analysis of the teleconnections between oceanic and atmospheric phenomena, as well as their influence on climate variability and extreme weather events;
- Remote sensing of air–sea interactions: the utilization of satellite observations, remote sensing techniques, and in situ measurements to study the spatial and temporal characteristics of air–sea interactions;
- Modeling and simulations: the development and improvement of numerical models and simulations to better represent air–sea interaction processes and their roles in climate and weather prediction;
- Impacts of air–sea interactions on marine ecosystems: the examination of the influence of air–sea interactions on biological productivity, biogeochemical cycles, and ecosystem dynamics;
- Ocean heat content: the study of the impact of heat content on atmospheric processes.

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.

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.
