Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Perturbations of solar origin can trigger a multitude of physical processes occurring in interplanetary space down to the Earth’s surface.
The study of these processes is of the utmost importance, both to understand the physical mechanisms that govern them and, ultimately, to try to mitigate the consequent hazards on technological systems and human exploration.
At present, these investigations rely on a huge amount of data and a large number of new mathematical tools that enable significant advances in the comprehension, modeling and forecasting of the long chain of phenomena occurring during space weather events. On the one hand, there is a large number of measurements from ground-based facilities (i.e., geomagnetic observatories, ionosondes and radars) and from many space-based missions. On the other hand, thanks to the increasing computing capabilities, we are witnessing a rapid development of new techniques (e.g., in the field of machine learning) able to cope with wide and complex datasets and extract information from them that would otherwise be unavailable.
This Special Issue hopes to publish studies combining the two above-mentioned aspects. We welcome the submission of papers focused on the application of novel techniques, as well as traditional techniques used in a novel way, to remotely sensed data for space weather purposes.
Contributions in the framework of space weather relevant to this Special Issue may include:
- Modeling and forecasting of space-weather-relevant quantities through innovative mathematical techniques;
- Novel approaches for extracting new information from historical databases;
- New observations obtained from the analysis of recently issued either ground- or space-based measurements.

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. 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.
