Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The coastal ocean, the area extending from estuarine mouths and surf zones to the continental slope, is the interface between fresh waters and salt waters and the domain where the coastal waters meet the open ocean fluxes.
This domain, complex in both space and time, is under continuous anthropogenic and physical pressures, as many Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) address the environmental and socio-economic challenges facing the coastal ocean on a global scale.
Climate change, sea level rise and related extremes (e.g., marine heat waves, storm surges and coastal floods, etc.) are affecting not only the physical processes taking place in coastal waters, but also the population and environmental resilience of coastal regions.
Therefore, more comprehensive knowledge on the best ways to monitor, describe, understand and predict the physical processes of the coastal ocean is urgently needed, especially for long-term climate change predictions.
This Special Issue will collect and present recent research detailing monitoring and modeling efforts for various physical processes in the coastal ocean.

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.
