Reviews in Marine Environmental Science and Engineering

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering (JMSE) aims to provide an open-access forum for peer-reviewed review papers on current and emerging issues of interest in the fields of oceanography, marine biology, microbial ecology and environmental science/engineering. Emphasis for this Topical Collection will be placed on scholarly research that advances our knowledge and understanding of processes that influence and/or impact the health of the marine ecosystem (geochemical cycles, microbial ecology, marine pollution, climate change, etc.) and the development and application of marine ecosystem restoration strategies (oil spill countermeasures, habitat engineering, etc.). We invite researchers and their colleagues to contribute review papers on the state-of-knowledge, new developments as well as recommendations for future research in marine environmental science and engineering.

Manuscripts submitted to JMSE should neither be published previously nor be under consideration for publication in another journal. JMSE has no restrictions on the length of manuscripts, provided that the text is concise and comprehensive. The quality and impact of submissions will be evaluated under a peer-review process.

Types of articles considered (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/jmse/instructions) include reviews and systematic reviews providing concise and precise updates on the latest progress made in their area of research.

Prof. Dr. Kenneth Lee
Guest Editor

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized 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 semimonthly 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.
