Modeling Waves Generated by Tsunamigenic Source

Dear Colleagues,

It is well know how destructive, although rare, could be tsunami waves inundating coastal areas. The scientific community continues to conduct detailed research on this topic, attempting to model the generation mechanism, the behavior of tsunami wave during propagation, and the inland inundation phase. The ultimate goal is to provide clear knowledge of the phenomena to set up tsunami hazard and risk analysis systems to estimate the wave energy in real time, to build inundation maps, and so on.

As Guest Editor for the Special Issue “Modelling Waves Generated by Tsunamigenic Source” of the open access Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, I would like to invite you to publish a paper in this Issue. Either physical and mathematical approaches will fit the topic. Contributions involving wave generation, wave propagation both in near and far field, probabilistic tsunami hazard, and risk assessment are also encouraged.

Dr. Claudia Cecioni
Guest Editor

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 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-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 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.
