Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The research and development of the Ocean have attracted tremendous attention from the academic researchers and industrial engineers. The ocean is an important supporting system for the human’s living environment and affects the changes of the earth's environment and climate. Therefore, the monitoring technologies of the marine information are important to understand and exploit the ocean resources. To realize this objective, various sensing technologies have been investigated, including optical fiber sensing. The research of fiber optic sensing technology and its integration with the submarine fiber optic network systems is highly desirable, which could provide new core devices for submarine observation networks. Due to the advantages of the optical fiber sensing, it is a good candidate in marine information monitoring. However, many scientific and engineering problems still exist, which are under investigations in terms of novel sensing mechanisins, new sensor designs, materials, fabrication techniques, signal analysis, optical demodulation, sensing systems, field tests, applications, multidisciplines, etc.
For this Special Issue of Sensors, we aim to present a collection of review and original research articles related to the development of optical fiber sensing techonlogies for marine information monitoring. We invite scientists and academic researchers across the globe to contribute relevant articles.

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. Sensors 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.
