Contents Notes | Prelude to Modeling Coastal Basins -- Currents and Continuity -- Box and One-dimensional models -- Basic Hydrodynamics -- Simple Hydrodynamic Models -- Modeling Tides and Long Waves in Coastal Basins -- Mixing in Coastal Basins -- Advection of Momentum -- Aspects of Stratificaction -- Dynamics of Partially Mixed Basins -- Roughness in Coastal Basins -- Wave and Sediment Dynamics. "This book is ideal for use as an advanced textbook for students and as an introduction to the topic for researchers, especially those from other fields of science needing a basic understanding of the fundamental ideas of the dynamics of coastal embayments and the way that they can be modeled."--Jacket. |
