Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Current problems in the field of astronomy require the creation and modernization of existing instruments. Tasks require a constant increase in parameters such as improving the sensitivity of receivers, increasing the angular resolution, increasing the field of view, and multi-wave spectral analysis. The limiting factor for all these requirements is always the earth's atmosphere. The purpose of this Special Issue is to showcase the latest results in the field of research of the Earth's astroclimate. The study of the astroclimate plays an important role not only in astronomy but also in applied problems, such as optical communication, etc.
Interesting topics for the Special Issue include various areas including, but not limited to, the following:
* New methods of observation of astroclimate parameters;
* Modeling of astroclimate parameters for problems of astronomy, vision systems, energy transmission, and communication;
* Atmospheric turbulence;
* Atmospheric boundary layer;
* Astroclimate in the tasks of sub.mm astronomy;
* Research of the astroclimate from space.
We will be glad to see your work in our Special Issue!

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. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
