Selected Papers from the 15th Estuarine and Coastal Modeling Conference

Dear Colleagues,

The 15^th Estuarine and Coastal Modeling Conference provides a venue for commercial, academic, and government scientists and engineers from around the world to present and discuss the latest results and techniques in applied estuarine and coastal modeling. Prospective authors are invited to submit papers on a wide range of topic areas, including:

• Pollutant Transport and Water Quality Prediction
• Coastal Response to Climate Change
• Modeling Techniques and Sensitivity Studies
• Model Assessment
• Modeling Specific Estuarine and Coastal Systems
• Visualization and Analysis
• Wave and Sediment Transport Modeling
• Modeling of Chemicals and Floatables
• Oil Spill Transport and Fate Modeling
• Inverse Methods
• Circulation Modeling
• Facility Siting and CSO Studies
• Data Assimilation
• Nowcast/Forecast Modeling Systems
• Modeling Systems with Strong Buoyancy Forcing
• Modeling of Coupled Systems
• Risk Analysis (Nuclear Reactors, Flood Forecasting)

This Special Issue presents a selection of papers from the conference; the papers give insight into current research and commercial developments while highlighting some of the areas where further research is required.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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 semimonthly 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.
