Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Space Weather refers to the study of solar activity of the Near Earth Environment and its impact on the performance and reliability of space-borne and ground-based technological systems. Space weather includes a wide spectrum of physical processes with various spatial and temporal scales which affect different users and technologies. Solar activity appearing itself as solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CME), EUV and X-ray emissions as well as energetic particle precipitations affects the Earth’s magnetosphere and upper atmosphere resulting in magnetic, ionospheric and thermospheric storms. The goal of this special issue is to provide a present-day understanding of physical processes from the Sun to the Earth environment and to report advances in monitoring and prediction of space weather.
This issue is focusing on physics processes that are behind space weather and on their modeling to achieve a reliable predictive capability of space weather forecast in operation of HF, GNSS and satellite observations.

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.
