About the Book

Highlighting the monitoring, analysis and modelling of environmental problems in coastal regions, including sea, air and other phenomena, this book features papers from the fifth international conference on this subject. Topics related to the prevention, alleviation and minimization of adverse effects are emphasised, while related areas such as the practical applications of computer modelling are also included.
