Although numerous books have been written on both monitoring and
modelling of coastal oceans, there is a practical need for an
introductory multi-disciplinary volume to non-specialists in this
field. The articles commisioned for this book, organized into four
major themes, are written by experts in their disciplines while the
text is intended for scientists who do not have extensive training
in marine sciences and coastal zone management. As such, the
articles in this monograph can be a valuable reference for
practicing professionals. The first section introduces the complex
physical processes with main emphasis on waste disposal in the
coastal ocean. Following this, examples of instrumentation
techniques that are commonly used for measuring different
properties of oceans are discribed. Coastal and estuarine transport
and dispersion modelling is introduced in the next section with
examples from different parts of the world. The last section
provides an overview of coastal disasters such as tropical
cyclones, storm surges and oil spills.
