About the journal
Marine Technology Society Journal
The Marine Technology Society Journal, a peer reviewed quarterly, is an internationally recognized publication. It offers a selection of original contributions by MTS members and other professionals involved in ocean science, engineering, technology and policy. Every summer the Journal features a State of Technology Report. This report presents the most up-to-date information, data, and trends in one of four topic areas: advanced marine technology, marine resources, ocean and coastal engineering, and marine policy and education. The Journal also provides book reviews and commentary.
