Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Subsea tunnels are essential in modern transportation, offering efficient and reliable routes that overcome the limitations of surface and bridge connections. They expand underwater infrastructure while facing unique challenges due to complex environments and strict safety standards. The field of subsea tunneling has seen remarkable advancements, with new methodologies and materials significantly enhancing project feasibility and safety over the years.
This Special Issue aims to gather advanced research and practices related to subsea tunnel design, construction, and operation, addressing key engineering and safety challenges. This issue highlights the latest developments in artificial intelligence applications, new construction techniques, advanced materials, and risk management strategies, contributing to the future of subsea tunneling.

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
