Extreme Waves

Dear Colleagues,

Please let me bring to your attention this information about the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering (JMSE) Special Issue on "Extreme Waves”.

This Special Issue will focus on the use of theoretical, numerical, and experimental approaches to better understanding and predicting extreme waves in the ocean. The Special Issue will cover the following topics:

• Extreme waves in the open ocean and in the coastal zone;
• Extreme events (storm surges and cyclones);
• Remote sensing of extreme waves;
• Probabilistic and statistical methods for extreme wave studies;
• Hindcasting and forecasting extreme waves;
• Interaction of waves and currents;
• Theoretical aspects;
• Climate change impact on extreme waves.

We look forward to reviewing your manuscripts!
