The application of multibeam and sediment transport measurement
technologies and the adoption of multi-faceted research
methodologies have greatly advanced our understanding of the
sedimentary processes on continental shelves in the last decade.
This book uniquely blends cutting-edge research and state-of-the
art review articles that take stock of new advances in multibeam
mapping and sediment transport technologies, spatial analysis and
modelling, and the applications of these advances to the
understanding of shelf sediments, morphodynamics, and sedimentary
processes. Case studies are also presented to illustrate the
utilization of seabed property and process knowledge in habitat
mapping and ocean management
With its mix of papers focusing on technological advances,
integration of shelf morphology and processes, and the application
of these advances to coastal and ocean management, this Special
Publication volume will serve as a milestone reference for
professional marine scientists and as advanced text for students in
marine geology, sedimentology and oceanography.
This book is part of the International Association of
Sedimentologists (IAS) Special Publications.
The Special Publications from the IAS are a set of thematic
volumes edited by specialists on subjects of central interest to
sedimentologists. Papers are reviewed and printed to the same high
standards as those published in the journal Sedimentology and
several of these volumes have become standard works of
reference.
