Upcoming Special-Issue Topics

In general, the bulk of each issue of Oceanography is devoted to invited articles related to the special-issue topic. However, the editorial staff also encourages unsolicited manuscripts on other oceanography themes for consideration and publication under the Regular Features banner. For more information on how to submit a manuscript please visit our Author Guidelines page.

Please contact the Editor, Dr. Ellen Kappel (ekappel@geo-prose.com) if you would like to suggest a topic for a special issue or if your organization is interested in sponsoring a special issue of the magazine.
