Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The complicated processes of wave energy dissipation have long been an important topic, especially for harbor design and coast protection. Wave energy dissipation can be caused by artificial structures (e.g., skirt structures, submerged breakwaters), natural permeable media (e.g., coral reefs, vegetation), bathymetric changes, surface friction, etc. during the propagation of waves. The purpose of the invited Special Issue, "Energy Dissipation During Wave Propagation", is to publish the latest and most exciting theoretical, experimental, and numerical research regarding theories, mechanisms, and possible applications related to wave energy dissipation in the scope of ocean and coastal engineering disciplines. High-quality papers are encouraged for publication concerning, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Wave shoaling and breaking;
- Wave transformation;
- Wave–structure interactions;
- Wave-absorbing structures;
- Coastal protection;
- Nature-based coastal defense;
- Marine and offshore renewable energy.

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.
