Remote Sensing for the Definition and Near-Real Time Monitoring of Meteorological Extremes

Dear Colleagues,

Climate interconnections with several aspects of weather patterns and parameters, including anomalous, rare, and extreme weather events, need to be well understood. Extreme events can be harmful to our heath, cause great devastation to infrastructures, affect our economy, and even cause the loss of lives. This Special Issue stems from the need of the meteorological community to improve the understanding and characterization of extreme weather and its feedback connection with climate in time and space. Submission of papers on remote sensing techniques developed for the characterization, detection, and near-real-time monitoring of meteorological extreme is encouraged. Some examples of extreme events include, but are not limited to, heat waves, cold waves, floods, heavy precipitation systems, drought, tornadoes, and tropical cyclones.

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.
