Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Oceans cover more than 70% of the world's surface. Ocean observation is very important for marine scientific research, marine engineering planning and construction, and maritime safety. Advances in ocean observation instruments and technology have led to faster, more accurate, and more comprehensive ocean observations; however, ocean observation instruments are often limited by battery capacity, data storage, and transmission, and cannot conduct observations more effectively. The development of ocean energy and its combination with energy storage systems may be able to meet the needs of ocean observation systems. This Special Issue, "Ocean Observations, Second Edition", welcomes (but is not limited to) papers on various ocean observation results and their applications, the development or improvement of ocean observation instruments and technology, and ocean energy, among other topics.
