COASTAL AND ESTUARINE PROCESSESby Peter Nielsen (The University of Queensland, Australia)
This book is an introductory treatment to coastal and estuarine processes for earth scientists or engineers. Suitable for a first course on the subject, it covers water waves, surf zone hydrodynamics, tides in oceans and estuaries, storm surges, estuarine mixing, basic sediment transport, coastal morphodynamics and coastal groundwater dynamics.
The book contains a substantial amount of new material. For example, the explicit, analytical treatment of transient, forced long waves strongly enhances the discussion on tsunami, storm surges and surf beat. The treatment of turbulent mixing includes finite mixing length effects, which provide an explanation for differential diffusion of different sediment sizes in suspension. The recently discovered effects of acceleration skewness and boundary layer streaming are also included in the basic sediment transport models. In addition, the treatment of beach groundwater dynamics: The mechanisms by which waves as well as tides drive groundwater motion, builds the link between the previously unconnected fields of coastal hydraulics and regional groundwater modeling.
To serve as an effective reference book for professionals, the book is fully indexed and comprehensively cross referenced.
Readership: Undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and engineers in coastal, civil and environmental engineering.

ADVANCES IN NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF NONLINEAR WATER WAVESedited by Qingwei Ma (City University, London, UK)
Most of the Earth’s surface is covered by water. Our everyday lives and activities are affected by water waves in oceans, such as the tsunami that occurred in the Indian Ocean on 26 December 2004. This indicates how important it is for us to fully understand water waves, in particular the very large ones. One way to do so is to perform numerical simulation based on the nonlinear theory. Considerable research advances have been made in this area over the past decade by developing various numerical methods and applying them to emerging problems; however, until now there has been no comprehensive book to reflect these advances. This unique volume aims to bridge this gap.
Readership: Postgraduates, researchers and engineers in numerical modeling of nonlinear water waves.
Key Features• Reviews the state-of-the-art numerical modeling of nonlinear water
waves• Presents almost all advanced numerical methods for nonlinear water
waves• Presents key achievements over the past decade in this area• Covers almost all related applications, such as overturning waves, breaking
waves, freak waves, tsunamis, violent sloshing waves, green water, wave–structure interaction and so on
• Serves as a unique reference for postgraduates, researchers and senior engineers

Advanced Series on Ocean Engineering – Vol. 16
INTRODUCTION TO COASTAL ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENTby J William Kamphuis (Queen’s University, Canada)
This book is intended to be a text for undergraduate students of coastal engineering. It also serves as a reference for graduate students and practicing engineers, building on a basic foundation in coastal engineering. Finally, it is a guide for people in related disciplines. Coastal managers may use the book to cover the more theoretical and engineering-related aspects of their trade. Its subject matter is of interest to geographers, planners and coastal scientists alike.
Contents: Water Waves; Short-Term Wave Analysis; Long-Term Wave Analysis; Wave Generation; Tides and Water Levels; Wave Transformation and Breaking; Design of Structures; Breakwaters; Introduction to Coastal Management; Coastal Sediment Transport; Basic Shore Processes; Coastal Design; One-Dimensional Modeling of Coastal Morphology; Shore Protection; Problems.
Readership: Civil and coastal engineers, resource managers, planners, and coastal scientists.
WATER WAVE MECHANICS FOR ENGINEERS AND SCIENTISTSby Robert G Dean (University of Florida, USA) & Robert A Dalrymple (University of Delaware, USA)
The book commences with a review of fluid mechanics and basic vector concepts. The formulation and solution of the governing boundary value problem for small amplitude waves are developed and the kinematic and pressure fields for short and long waves are explored. The transformation of waves due to variations in depth and their interactions with structures are derived. Wavemaker theories and the statistics of ocean waves are reviewed. The application of the water particle motions and pressure fields are applied to the calculation of wave forces on small and large objects. Extension of the linear theory results to several nonlinear wave properties is presented.
Readership: Coastal and ocean engineers.
“Chapter on wave maker theory is new material, generally not found in text books. The authors pull together good stuff from various widely scattered sources ... the book makes a good impression ... it is worth having a copy of this book on your desk.”

INTRODUCTION TO COASTAL ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT(2nd Edition)by J William Kamphuis (Queen’s University, Canada)
This book is based on the author’s 34 years of experience as a teacher/researcher of coastal engineering and management and on recent reflections on contemporary issues, such as consequences of failure, impacts of rising sea levels, aging infrastructure, real estate development and contemporary decision making, design and education.
This textbook for undergraduate students, postgraduate students and practicing engineers covers waves, structures, sediment movement, coastal management, and contemporary coastal design and decision making, presenting both basic principles and engineering solutions. It discusses the traditional methods of analysis and synthesis (design), but also contemporary design taking into account environmental impacts, consequences of failure, and current concerns such as global warming, aging infrastructure, working with stakeholder groups, regulators, etc.
This second edition expands greatly on current topics of failure and resilience that surfaced as a result of recent disasters from hurricane surges and tsunamis. It also updates the discussion of design and decision making in the 21st century, with many new examples presented.
Readership: Undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and academics in coastal engineering and management.
Key Features• Focuses on design• Looks at the whole spectrum of coastal engineering — waves, structures
and sediment• Much of it is at a basic, introductory level, but leads into sophisticated
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF OCEAN WAVES AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL DATAby Leon E Borgman (University of Wyoming), John Niedzwecki (Texas A&M University), Norman W Scheffner (USAE Waterways Experiment Station, Missowi), John W Kern (Western Ecosystems Technology, Inc., Wyoming) & Mihail Petrakos (Space Applications Institute of the Joint Research Center, Ispra, Italy)
In this book, the statistics of ocean wave phenomena is developed from the viewpoints of individual wave properties, such as height, period, and direction; climatological properties at a given time, such as significant height and directional spectra; and long term statistics of the wave climatology. Random functions, correlated in space and time, are formulated for both environmental and ocean data. Techniques, with an appropriate software library (FORTRAN and MATLAB), are provided for the analysis of data, geostatistical kriging, and the simulation of realistic artificial data. This includes a detailed development of conditional simulation (with particular emphasis on the very fast frequency domain methods), and of distribution-free empirical simulation techniques.
The book can be used for a variety of university courses and seminars. It does not present a broad survey, but rather an in-depth treatment of a large number of important application techniques.
Readership: Ocean engineers and scientists, coastal engineers, civil engineers, geostatisticians, applied statisticians and mathematicians.
