Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It has been nearly half a century since the launch of artificial satellites for ocean observation, and the resulting data have been widely used in ocean, climate change, and other related research. Drones and coastal sensors developed in recent years have also been used to observe marine phenomena. In addition, with rapidly increasing computing speeds, various artificial intelligence algorithms have also emerged. These technologies have been used to process remote sensing images and data. Therefore, this Special Issue welcomes research on the application of remote sensing data from spaceborne, airborne, or ground sensors in ocean observation and the application of artificial intelligence technology to the analysis of ocean remote sensing data.
