Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Coastal wetlands represent highly productive habitats and provide protection from waves and storms. One of the most important roles of wetlands is the regulation of global climate change through sequestering and releasing a major proportion of the fixed carbon in the biosphere. Nevertheless, the wetland areas are losing ground due to human activities and the sea level rise induced by climate change. High-resolution satellite images and images acquired by drones, as well as LiDAR data, contribute to the rapid and effective analysis of the current conditions of wetlands and their temporal evolution. We invite submissions on “Remote Sensing Monitoring of Wetland Habitat Evolution” from a range of disciplines (e.g., biogeomorphology, biology, ecology, geomorphology, oceanography, hydrology, and coastal zone management). Studies can be based on field observations, modeling, and geospatial techniques.

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.
