Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the wide range of aspects related to the deployment and operation of magnetic stations, observatories, and repeat stations, as well as the modern techniques of the field, aerial, and marine magnetic surveys. Special attention is paid to advanced mathematical tools and algorithms aimed at the systematic improvement of recorded data and their possible real-time applications. Ground-based geomagnetic observations are an indispensable source of information on the Earth’s magnetic field dynamics. Magnetic stations and observatories provide continuous and homogeneous time-series of geomagnetic elements for decades and centuries. This crucial feature enables retrospective analysis of the long-term evolution of the geomagnetic field, which is unfortunately lacking in low-orbit satellite missions. This Special Issue also welcomes submissions devoted to modern mathematical approaches to the comprehensive analysis and interpretation of geomagnetic information, data mining and modeling. Fundamental studies of both internal and external magnetic fields using ground-based observations are in the scope of the Special Issue. Please note that submissions involving geomagnetic data as an indirect source of information for predicting phenomena other than magnetic natural phenomena, such as seismicity, go beyond the problem area. Thus, we encourage contributors of the regional and global networks, scientists who actively employ ground-based data in their geomagnetic studies and geomagnetic instrument manufacturers to share their results through the Special Issue. Since the progress in geomagnetic research is gained largely due to extensive international cooperation, we welcome submissions from countries and institutions of the broadest geography.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
