Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Satellite remote sensing has emerged as a pivotal tool in monitoring and understanding geohazards worldwide. This Special Issue aims to explore advanced techniques in satellite remote sensing, such as Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and multispectral data, for detecting and monitoring geohazards such as landslides, land subsidence, and cryospheric disasters. These techniques offer unprecedented capabilities in spatial and temporal monitoring, providing critical insights into the dynamics and impacts of geohazards on both natural and human environments.
This Special Issue aims to explore recent advancements and innovative applications of advanced satellite remote sensing techniques for geohazard analysis. It aligns with the scope of Remote Sensing by emphasizing the integration of satellite remote sensing technologies with geosciences and environmental studies. This Special Issue seeks to advance methodologies in satellite remote sensing data processing, validation techniques, and modelling approaches, ultimately contributing to an improved understanding and management of geohazards at local, regional, and global scales.
Case studies demonstrating the application of satellite remote sensing in real-world geohazard scenarios.
Advanced SAR data and InSAR techniques for landslide detection and monitoring.
Satellite remote sensing for revealing land subsidence phenomena.
Glaciers, frozen soil thawing dynamics, and other cryospheric disaster monitoring using SAR and optical remote sensing.
Integration of InSAR with other remote sensing data (e.g., optical imagery, LiDAR) for comprehensive geohazard assessment.
Review articles synthesizing recent advancements and future directions in satellite remote sensing for geohazard studies.

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.
