This four-volume set contains the proceedings of the July 2000 conference on coastal engineering. Approximately 300 papers are divided into five parts on: characteristics of coastal waves and currents; long period waves, storm surges and wave groups; coastal structures; coastal processes and sediment transport; and coastal, estuarine, and environmental problems. The individual papers cover such topics as the effects of wind, waves storms, and currents as well as the study of sedimentation, erosion, and beach nourishment. Special emphasis is given to case studies of completed engineering projects. With the inclusion of both practical and theoretical information, they provide the civil engineer and professionals in related fields with a broad range of information on coastal engineering and processes affecting design and operations in the coastal zone.
