Описание: The coastal zone is one of the most dynamic environments on our planet and is much affected by global change, especially sea-level rise. Coastal environments harbour valuable ecosystems, but they are also hugely important from a societal point of view.
Описание: Taking a wider perspective to consider the range of implementation methods, the viability of managed realignment as a long-term coastal management strategy is discussed. Recent national and regional strategies worldwide give managed realignment an increasing role in climate change and flood risk management.
Описание: The most recent advances in research on coastal saline soil rehabilitation and utilization based on forestry approach are discussed. The forestry approach is emphasized rather than physical or engineering measures to ameliorate saline soils, which is significant for coastal environmental improvement and land resources expansion.

Описание: This book examines the integrated sustainable management of coastal water bodies. The main topic of this book is not the ecology according to its accepted meaning, but rather the `places and people` who survive on the coastal zones of the Mediterranean.

Описание: Introduces the complex physical processes with main emphasis on waste disposal in the coastal ocean. This book describes examples of instrumentation techniques that are commonly used for measuring different properties of oceans. It also introduces coastal and estuarine transport and dispersion modelling.

Описание:
The book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the physical processes which, according to the present state of knowledge, determine the evolution of coastal systems and their response to human interventions. This response depends to a large degree on the self-organising properties of coastal dynamics, which form a leading theme throughout the book. The basic theoretical ideas are explained in text and figures and also in formulas for the more mathematically inclined reader. Theories are illustrated with examples from estuaries, coastal lagoons, beaches and tidal flat systems from all over the world. The rules and simple models can be used directly without relying on complex computations; much attention is given to the strengths and weaknesses of the underlying theories and their limits of applicability. The book is fully self-contained; some knowledge of basic physics and mathematics is recommended. The book is an upgrade of the first edition. Most parts are rewritten and chapters are added to incorporate research results, new insight and experience of the past ten years. This book is intended for everyone interested in coastal systems for professional or educational reasons.

Identifying efficient solutions to protect coastal regions frommarine pollution requires expertise from a range of specialties andstrategic approaches. This book gathers information on the impactof oil spills at a coastal level from different experts'points of view, identifying synergies between domains such asmathematics, numerical modeling, mechanics, biology, economics andlaw.
The collaborative research presented here is based on the 4thInternational Workshop on Anti-Pollution and Marine Coastal WaterPollution, held in La Rochelle, France at the Engineering SchoolEIGSI, in April 2012. The areas addressed include: materials andstructures (fluid-structure and capture interaction, cable andmembrane equations, optimization); coastal hydrodynamics(computational fluid dynamics, numerical analysis of shallow waterequations, analytical and numerical derivatives); biologicalimpacts (biology, multivariate analysis, indicators); and economicsand law (compensation costs, insurance coverage, coastalvulnerability).

Описание:
This collection of essays and design case studies explores a range of ideas and best practices for adapting to dynamic waterfront conditions while incorporating nature conservation in urbanized coastal areas. The editors have curated a selection of works contributed by leading practitioners in the fields of coastal science, community resilience, habitat restoration, sustainable landscape architecture and floodplain management. By highlighting ocean-friendly innovations and strategies being applied in coastal cities today, this book illustrates ways to cohabit with many other species who share the waterfront with us, feed in salt marshes, bury their eggs on sandy beaches, fly south over cities along the Atlantic Flyway, or attach themselves to an oyster reef. This book responds to the need for inventive, practical, and straightforward ways to weather a changing climate while being responsible shoreline stewards.
