Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The accelerating growth of wind energy in recent years further emphasizes the need for an improved understanding and modeling of wind conditions for individual turbines, wind farms, farm to farm interaction, and atmospheric conditions in off- and on-shore situations.
The modeling challenges range from complex phenomena that cross many physical and temporal scales. State-of-the-art modeling tools include some of these phenomena; however, many tools only use a limited part of the full complexity, due to limited computational resources, among other reasons.
In this Special Issue in Advances in the Simulation of Wind Conditions, the available modeling possibilities and limitations are in focus. The focus further includes a wide range of physical and temporal modeling scales, i.e., ranging from mesoscale to large eddy simulations and from state-of-the-art to the future possibilities with engineering tools and possibly comparisons and benchmarks between these approaches.

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.
