Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ocean dynamics in tropical cyclones (TC) is an interesting topic in oceanography. With the development of remote sensing oceanic dynamics (i.e., wind and wave), targets and oil spills are detectable by SARs, i.e., Sentinel-1, COSMO-SkyMed, etc. Compared with scatterometer and altimeter, SAR with fine spatial resolution and wide swath coverage has great ability in a TC, which can simultaneously measure upper dynamics. In addition, numeric models are usually employed in TC-relevant research, i.e., huge waves, SST cooling, etc. This Special Issue will present the TC relevant researches, i.e., wind profile, air–sea interaction, extreme waves, current, rain, etc., utilizing SAR measurements and numeric models. Moreover, it is worthwhile to research the characteristics of TC using remote-sensed products.
SAR is an advanced sensor for upper ocean monitoring. During the Satellite Hurricane Observation Campaign (SHOC), tropical cyclones are captured by various SARs, i.e., Sentinel-1 and Gaofen-3. In this sense, developing algorithms for SAR retrievals in tropical cyclones is worthwhile. Furthermore, combining the SAR measurements and numeric models brings the opportunity to prompt research on the complicate dynamics at air–sea layer.
This Special Issue welcomes the submission of original research manuscripts or reviews in, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Backscattering theory of remote sensing in tropical cyclone;
- Algorithm for SAR retrievals (i.e., wind, wave, current, etc.);
- Extreme sea state using a numeric wave model;
- Disaster assessment caused by tropical cyclone;
- Analysis of characteristics of tropical cyclone;
- Other tropical cyclone-relevant applications using other remote sensors.

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. Remote Sensing 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 2700 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.
