Synopsis

This three-volume set of the proceedings of the June 1998 conference provides civil engineer and professionals in related fields with a broad range of both theoretical and practical information on coastal engineering and processes affecting design and operations in the coastal zone. Approximately 270 papers are divided into five parts: characteristics of coastal waves and currents; long waves and storm surges; coastal structures; coastal recesses and sediment transport; and coastal, estuarine, and environmental problems. The individual papers include such topics as the effects of wind, waves, storms, and currents as well as the study of sedimentation, erosion, and beach nourishment. They give special emphasis to case studies of completed engineering projects. The index is in Volume Three. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
