Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The world is evolving rapidly. Changes are disruptive and sometimes utterly devastating. Technologies are evolving quickly, as well as data processing systems. The number of measured data is always greater, but in almost all cases, they are related to a single, specific action that does not characterize the entire system. To monitor and control changes, alterations, and effects, the research challenge is to systematize, synthesize, and index complex ecosystems with innovative tools. The definition and introduction of a footprint, as an analytical indicator, is in this sense a challenge of modern science. A footprint which, determined through the use of instrumental sensors, is called a fingerprint. A fingerprint which, determined with intelligent systems and continuously and dynamically updated, can act as a proactive tool to avoid various impacts and, through the adoption of IoT actions, to control industrial processes and/or sources. This Special Issue focuses on the study and development of these innovative systems which, through the measurement of multiple gaseous compounds, allow for the monitoring of complex systems, managing to characterize and define a fingerprint for control purposes. This Special Issue aims to collect original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of advanced and smart instrumental systems for the monitoring and active control of GHG, VOCs, and environmental odours.

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. Sensors 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 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.
