Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the increase in the exploration and exploitation of marine resources, marine ecological issues have become increasingly prominent. Mankind’s impact on the physical ecological environment relates to factors such as overpopulation, pollution, and deforestation. Therefore, to address this current global marine ecological crisis, we have launched this Special Issue on “Marine Pollution: Environmental Effect and Its Ecological Remediation”. Through the fruits of our collective efforts, we hope to highlight the existing relationships between and amongst the marine environmental challenges, their causes, and real-world solutions.
In this context, researchers and practitioners from across the disciplinary spectrum, interested in advancing the current academic understanding concerning the environmental effects and ecological remediations, are welcomed to submit their manuscripts. The keywords listed below provide an outline of some, but not all, of the possible areas of interest.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health.
Prof. Dr. Yuqing Sun
