Book Description
These proceedings contain late-1990s research on the computer modelling of seas and coastal regions under normal and extreme conditions, with special attention to the environmental problems of coastal areas. Topics covered include shallow water models, pollutant transport and dispersion, sewage and chemical pollution, wave propagation, harbours and marinas, coastal erosion, sea defence and protection systems, underwater dunes, coastal lakes and lagoons, oil slicks and atmospheric effects.

Coastal Engineering Practice 2011
Author: Orville T. Magoon
Publisher: ASCE Publications
ISBN: 0784411905
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1133
Book Description
Proceedings of the 2011 Conference on Coastal Engineering Practice, held in San Diego, California, August 21-24, 2011. Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 90 papers that focus on developing solutions to coastal engineering problems and ensuring sustainable coastal development. Papers reflect an emphasis on practical experience and actual projects rather than specific technical and scientific aspects of coastal engineering. Topics include: case histories of coastal projects; sustainable coastal development; erosion and shoreline protection; coastal environment, water quality, and wetlands restoration; coastal hazards and risk management; coastal sediment processes; ports, harbors, and marine transportation; and local, state, and federal involvement in planning, design, and construction of coastal projects. These papers enhance the exchange of real-world experience and thus will be of interest to practicing coastal engineers.

Advances in Coastal Modeling
Author: V.C. Lakhan
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080526640
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 614
Book Description
This book unifies and enhances the accessibility of contemporary scholarly research on advances in coastal modeling. A comprehensive spectrum of innovative models addresses the wide diversity and multifaceted aspects of coastal research on the complex natural processes, dynamics, interactions and responses of the coastal supersystem and its associated subsystems. The twenty-one chapters, contributed by internationally recognized coastal experts from fourteen countries, provide invaluable insights on the recent advances and present state-of-the-art knowledge on coastal models which are essential for not only illuminating the governing coastal process and various characteristics, but also for understanding and predicting the dynamics at work in the coastal system. One of the unique strengths of the book is the impressive and encompassing presentation of current functional and operational coastal models for all those concerned with and interested in the modeling of seas, oceans and coasts. In addition to chapters modeling the dynamic natural processes of waves, currents, circulatory flows and sediment transport there are also chapters that focus on the modeling of beaches, shorelines, tidal basins and shore platforms. The substantial scope of the book is further strengthened with chapters concentrating on the effects of coastal structures on nearshore flows, coastal water quality, coastal pollution, coastal ecological modeling, statistical data modeling, and coupling of coastal models with geographical information systems.

Coastal Recreation Management
Author: Tim Goodhead
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1136741852
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
The maritime environment includes both the water resource of the terrestrial coast and estuarine and coastal inshore waters. This book, for undergraduate students and those training in the field, relates the need to manage water-based leisure activities with the need to manage the maritime environment on which they depend.
