Coastal communities are in the front line of a changing climate. Escalating problems created by sea-level rise, a greater number of severe coastal storms and other repercussions of climate change will exacerbate already pervasive impacts resulting from rapd coastal population gr…
Offers a collection of case studies highlighting the need to consciously reflect on current circumstances, contemplate future prospects, and deliberately choose pathways that are attuned to the changing circumstances climate change will bring to coastal regions around the globe.…
"Coastal communities are in the front line of climate change. Escalating problems created by sea-level rise, more intense coastal storms, ocean acidification and other repercussions of climate change will exacerbate already pervasive impacts resulting from rapid coastal populati…
Coastal structures are an important component in any coastal protection scheme. They directly control wave and storm surge action or to stabilize a beach which provides protection to the coast. This book provides the most up-to-date technical advances on the design and construct…

The 2 volume proceedings of the 9th ICE Conference on Coastal Structures and Breakwaters discusses the state of the art in analysis, design and construction of breakwaters and other types of coastal structures, including interaction between coastlines and structures, and vice ve…
« Effective coastal engineering is expensive, but it is not as costly as neglect or ineffective intervention. Good practice needs to be based on sound principles, but theoretical work and modelling also need to be well grounded in practice, which is continuously evolving. Concep…
