COASTAL & ESTUARINE PROCESSES (V29)

Focusing on coastal and estuarine processes, the book offers an introductory yet comprehensive exploration suitable for earth scientists and engineers. It covers essential topics like water waves, tides, storm surges, and sediment transport, while introducing innovative concepts such as transient long waves and turbulent mixing effects. The explicit treatment of sine wave theory enhances understanding, and the inclusion of beach groundwater dynamics bridges gaps between coastal hydraulics and groundwater modeling. Fully indexed and cross-referenced, it also provides extensive references for further study.
