Coastal basins are defined as estuaries, lagoons, and embayments.
This book deals with the science of coastal basins using simple
models, many of which are presented in either analytical form or
Microsoft Excel or MATLAB. The book introduces simple hydrodynamics
and its applications, from the use of simple box and
one-dimensional models to flow over coral reefs. The book also
emphasizes models as a scientific tool in our understanding of
coasts, and introduces the value of the most modern flexible mesh
combined wave-current models. Examples from shallow basins around
the world illustrate the wonders of the scientific method and the
power of simple dynamics. This book is ideal for use as an advanced
textbook for graduate students and as an introduction to the topic
for researchers, especially those from other fields of science
needing a basic understanding of the basic ideas of the dynamics of
coastal basins.
