Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ocean is a challenging environment in which to explore. Pressure, currents, oxidation, bacterial deposits, required uncertainties, and various other factors contribute to making technological development and renewal difficult. Additionally, requirements in terms of ocean sampling and data quality are constantly increasing in order to improve the reliability of knowledge and ocean forecasting models.
Against this backdrop of constraints, it is worth taking stock of developments in sensor technology for ocean sciences. “Sensor" is used here in the broadest sense, from the element in contact with the quantity intended to be measured to the entire instrument or system of instruments used to sample ocean basins. In the same way, progress can concern technological developments, as well as data metrology, i.e., data referencing or the estimation of measurement uncertainties.
The field of publication themes opened up by this Issue of JMSE is therefore quite broad, and we look forward to your contributions. If the quality and quantity of the papers selected are sufficient, this collection will be published in book form.
Dr. Marc Le Menn
Guest Editor
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.
