Synopsis
Dispersion in Estuaries and Coastal Waters describes the physical processes which result in the dilution of a substance in the marine environment. The emphasis is mainly on the fundamental mechanisms of dispersion and the occurrence of these processes in estuaries and coastal waters Aspects of the present understanding of fluid dynamics in homogenous and stratified flows are discussed, with particular reference to the relevance of flow conditions to the turbulent state. The book describes how the associated dispersion processes are represented in mathematical models to quantify dilution in marine systems and the experimental techniques used to derive the mixing parameters required for the models. Concluding by discussing the application of the concepts of dispersion in well mixed, stratified and partially mixed systems, Dispersion in Estuaries and Coastal Waters acts as an excellent guide book for those needing to solve practical problems relating to marine dispersion. It also provides a useful review of dispersion as it cites key publications, both recent and long-standing, which are invaluable in interpreting and quantifying the dilution and fate of material in the marine environment.

From the Publisher
Describes the present understanding of dispersion process in the marine environment in relatively simple terms. Emphasis is placed on understanding the physical processes limited to the dispersion of dissolved substances and fine suspended matter. The book gathers studies which represent significant steps in understanding dispersion processes. Mathematics is introduced as a tool to quantify mechanisms and non-mathematical readers will not be intimidated.

Dispersion--the dilution and reduction of the concentration of pollutants in either air or water--is of fundamental importance to life on earth. This book emphasizes the physical processes limited to the dispersion of dissolved substances and fine suspended matter.
