Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Ocean energy is a promising renewable energy source due to its high energy density, stability, and predictability. However, biofouling remains a significant challenge, affecting the performance and longevity of the deployed systems.

This Special Issue aims to explore the latest advancements, emerging trends, and challenges in biofouling detection and its extent estimation for predictive maintenance purposes. Researchers and practitioners in the fields of renewable energy, marine biology, data science, and related disciplines are encouraged to contribute to this Special Issue. The submitted papers should provide insightful analyses and practical implications and highlight promising advancements in biofouling detection and estimation for tidal stream turbines.

Best,

Prof. Dr. Mohamed Benbouzid
Prof. Dr. Demba Diallo

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.
