This book Computer Modelling of Seas and Coastal Regions is the
first volume of the two volume proceedings of the International
Conference on Computer Modelling of Seas and Coastal Regions and
Boundary Elements and Fluid Dynamics, held in Southampton, U.K., in
April 1992. The importance of accurate modelling of seas and
coastal regions is empha sized by the need for predicting their
behaviour under extreme conditions. Problems, such as pollution of
these areas, have become a major interna tional concern and the
related environmental problems need further study using techniques
which can be used to determine the ways in which the water systems
respond to different effects and try to minimize the damage. They
can also lead to the development of early warning systems in
combina tion with remote sensing equipment and experimental
sampling techniques. Furthermore, once a disaster occurs, the model
can be used to optimize the use of the available resources. The
conference addresses coastal region modelling both under normal and
extreme conditions, with special reference to practical problems,
currently being experienced around the world. Many of the delegates
are actively involved in the modelling of seas and coastal regions.
This volume includes sections on waves, tides, shallow water
circulation and channel flow, siltation and sedimentation,
pollution problems, and computu tational techniques. The organizer
would like to thank the International Scientific Advisory
Committee, the conference delegates and all those who have actively
sup ported the meeting.
