Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Coastal ocean environments are profoundly important to global ecology. The effective monitoring and sustainable management of these vital environments requires comprehensive multidisciplinary understanding. Hyperspectral remote sensing provides one of the most effective tools for understanding coastal ecosystems and their connections to the ocean and land interfaces. Currently, hyperspectral data are being used in many applications related to coastal areas, such as the characterization of phytoplankton, measurement of water quality, analysis of the incidence of algal blooms, and coastal fisheries. In this Special Issue, advanced techniques for the analysis of coastal ocean environments using hyperspectral remote sensing data will be presented.
This Special Issue aims to collect articles addressing new developments and methodologies, best practices and applications of hyperspectral remote sensing in coastal environments. We invite you to submit your most recent advancements on all relevant topics, including but not limited to the following:
- Advanced data pre-processing methods for coastal hyperspectral images (e.g., dimensionality reduction, band selection, image denoising, etc.).
- Fusion of hyperspectral and other remote sensing data (e.g., Lidar, multispectral imagery, SAR, and Pan images) for coastal analyses.
- Diagnostic spectrum characteristic extraction and feature analysis of coastal ground objects (e.g., wetland, vegetation, and water).
- Training sample selection and optimization techniques for hyperspectral data in coastal areas.
- Fine identification of coastal ground objects using hyperspectral image processing (e.g., classification, spectral unmixing, and target detection).
- Temporal change detection and analysis of coastal hyperspectral images.
- Improved algorithms in big coastal hyperspectral data processing, such as deep learning and transfer learning.

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.
