Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Many years have come and gone since the first seminal studies on the analysis of climate change scenarios were proposed by the scientific community. Since then, a long series of research studies have been performed in order to assess and analyze the effects of climate change scenarios, aiming to identify the best adaptation measures. Coastal hydrodynamics and morphodynamics have been identified to be sensitive to situations such as increases in storm clustering, storm surges, wave energy variability. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect novel research works and field experience in this field. Indeed, although great efforts in different research areas have been made, a huge amount of work must be done in order to answer the theoretical and practical questions that remain.
Potential authors are invited to submit papers dealing with topics including, but not limited to, the following:
- wave–structure interaction towards climate change scenarios
- beach morphodynamics within the frame of climate change scenarios
- coastal management
- coastal adaptation measures to climate change
- coastal risk assessment related to climate change scenarios
- natural disasters and climate change scenarios
- field experiences toward adaption to climate change
- data analysis
We look forward to receiving your valuable works.

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. Water 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.
