Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Extreme sea levels induced by storm tides and waves are among the most destructive natural hazards worldwide, causing coastal flooding, severe erosion, and damage to coastal and offshore structures. In recent years, record-breaking extreme sea levels have been witnessed due to intensified hurricanes/typhoons/cyclones and winter storms. For an effective mitigation of, response to, and recovery from such hazards, it is essential to improve our modeling capabilities and understanding of storm tides and waves. Despite recent advances in model development, there is still a growing demand for new models that are computationally cost-effective yet efficiently resolve/parameterize complex physical processes. Additionally, studies of past storm tide and wave events are of great interest to coastal managers, decision makers, and researchers, as such studies reveal the level of hazards, vulnerability, and risk in coastal areas.
This Special Issue aims to compile the latest research in storm tide and wave modeling using new or existing dynamic and statistical models and artificial intelligence methods. We welcome articles focused on the development and validation of new models or application of existing models to hindcasts of historical events. Examples of topics include but are not limited to:
- Artificial intelligence for storm surge, tide, and wave prediction/forecast;
- Statistical modeling;
- Improved physics and numerical methods for dynamic models;
- Computationally fast models;
- Effects of wave–current interactions on storm tide and wave;
- Coastal flooding due to storm tide and wave overtopping/runup, and their interactions with river flow;
- High-resolution and three-dimensional modeling;
- Model coupling.
We look forward to receiving contributions to this Special Issue in the form of research articles and reviews.

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.
