The Cryosphere Observations Based on Using Remote Sensing Techniques II

Dear Colleagues,

The cryosphere, which includes snow cover, glaciers, ice caps and sheets, sea, lake and river ice, and frozen ground, accounts for a very important fraction of the surface of Earth. This significant part of its surface plays an important role in the functioning of our planet and has thus always been in the focus of wide scientific interest, which is recently even more accentuated due to the crucial role of the cryosphere in the global climate system and its change.

Due to its remoteness, the evaluation of the state of the cryosphere and the understanding of the cryospheric processes would be difficult to imagine these days without remote sensing techniques. Advances in remote sensing techniques constantly expand the possibilities for the effective study of the cryosphere, the importance of which is particularly highlighted by the climate crisis.

We cordially invite you to contribute, by preparing a communication or a full article for this Special Issue dedicated to the cryosphere observations by means of remote sensing. These should refer to your current studies based on using remote sensing techniques and providing new information about the state of the cryosphere and new insights into cryospheric processes, in particular in the context of climate change.

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. Remote Sensing 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 2700 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.
