Satellite Remote Sensing for Ocean and Coastal Environment Monitoring

0 - Default Title
Description
Knowledge of the ocean environment, especially in coastal regions, is essential for numerous human activities, such as tidal power, navigation, and ocean engineering. Remote sensing technologies like satellite altimeters and GNSS can transform traditional ocean research through providing observations with nearly global coverage. Nowadays, nearly all ocean environment elements, including sea level anomalies, sea surface temperature, winds, chlorophyll-a concentrations, water transparency, and sea waves, can be observed using remote sensing technologies. Evidently, remote sensing observations provide valuable opportunities to explore basin-wide changes in the ocean environment and ocean dynamic processes at different scales of space and time, such as ocean tides, mesoscale eddies, coastal currents, sea level rise, and ocean circulation. Furthermore, remote sensing observations have been assimilated into numerical models and thus greatly improve model performance. This Reprint endeavors to collect novel research works that utilize multi-source remote sensing observations, as well as numerical models, to explore diverse ocean dynamic processes and their influences on the changing ocean environment in the global ocean, especially in coastal areas with complicated hydrodynamic contexts and vital socio-economic roles.
