Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Waves, currents, tides, climate change and human activities are important factors affecting coastal morphology. Due to the complex and dynamic nature of coastal environments, studying and monitoring these processes is challenging. Remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS), as important monitoring means, can be used to deeply understand the coastal conditions and coastal evolution under different geomorphic environments and time scales through remote sensing observation.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to publish innovative research and application-oriented works related to coastal morphological monitoring. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Coastal geomorphology (Coastal evolution, erosion, Sediment dynamic processes) monitoring;
- GIS and Remote sensing technologies such as optical, radar, and LiDAR for Coastal/beach Systems;
- New technology, numerical modeling, applications, etc. such as machine learning, AI.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 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.
