New Advances in Marine Remote Sensing Applications

Dear Colleagues,

Remote sensing data are widely utilized to assess marine environments that have increasingly attracted public attention at global, regional and local scales. Water pollution caused by rapid urban development, sea level rise caused by the greenhouse effect, the melting of sea ice, storm surge, etc., have exacerbated issues induced by regional and global climate changes in the Earth sphere interactions, and these effects are often destructive to human development. Remote sensing, armed with recently emerging cloud computing, machine learning and AI technologies, is expected to play an unprecedent, yet important, role in assessing marine environments.

This Special Issue invites original research articles, as well as review articles that focus on ongoing efforts in using satellite or airborne remote sensing to understand the marine environment, land–ocean interactions, their response to global climate change and their interaction with human activities. The suggested topics are relevant, but not limited to, ocean data acquisition and pre-processing, data analysis and modeling, physical ocean parameters, sea level change, ocean–atmosphere interactions, coastal disasters, coastal ecosystem, water pollution, coastal (marine) engineering, coastal urbanization, as well as other coastal resilience themes.

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 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 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.
