Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hydrometeorology is essential for understanding the interactions between the atmosphere and terrestrial water systems. This understanding underpins the efforts to address the global challenges related to water resource management, climate change, and environmental sustainability. Moreover, as remote sensing data are extensively utilized across meteorology, hydrology, and disaster science, integrating remote sensing technologies into hydrometeorology is crucial for fostering sustainable water resource management and mitigating the impacts of climate change.
Although hydrometeorological extremes and natural disasters have significant social and economic impacts, the physical processes and underlying mechanisms driving these events remain poorly understood. Additionally, the social dynamics and consequences associated with natural disasters also require a thorough investigation and clear identification. Therefore, this Special Issue on “Remote Sensing in Hydrometeorology and Natural Hazards” aims to innovative the applications of remote sensing technologies within hydrometeorology and natural hazards. By presenting studies that utilize remote sensing for sustainable water management, climate resilience, and environmental conservation, this Issue aspires to enhance our understanding and ability to address critical global challenges. Hence, we invite researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute their insights and findings, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange to support a sustainable and resilient future.

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.
