Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few years, the applications of remote sensing methods have boomed, many of them based on multisensor systems/platforms. The demand for high-resolution data and global observation has led to an increase in various observing system types and networks. There is a growing demand to generate atmospheric parameter products derived from various different observing systems. The drivers behind this are twofold. On one hand, the generation of atmospheric parameter products derived from various observing systems should increase the quality of the final product. On the other hand, there is a growing need among the meteorological forecasting community to simplify the products used in forecasting, which can be achieved by providing unique atmospheric parameter products derived from various measurement systems. There are also some drawbacks to the multisensor approach. An obvious one is that it increases the complexity of the product processing chain. A second one is that to generate a single product from different measurements, they need first to be consistent. This Special Issue aims to collect original research outputs on atmospheric measurement with multisensor systems, including satellites, ground-based measurements, ground-based remote sensing applications, and airborne sensor systems for atmospheric measurement, including but not limited to:
- Temperature measurements;
- Water vapor measurements;
- Aerosol measurements;
- Ash and other elements generated by volcanic eruptions;
- Precipitation measurements;
- Clouds and aerosols;
- Air quality monitoring (particle matter and air pollution);
- Atmospheric chemistry measurements;
- Consistency between measurements from different sensors.

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.
