This item is the bound 5 volume set of the 2006 Coastal Engineering Proceedings of the thirtieth international conference that was held in San Diego, California in 2006. These volumes are in used, but very nice condition with the binding and pages in excellent condition. There are very small corner bumps or light cover creases on these volumes from gentle handling. These volumes would be of interest to any professional working in the fields of Ocean Science, Civil Engineering or Coastal Development. Also these volumes have applications in Navigation, Ocean Power Generation and Physical Oceanography.

Proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Coastal Engineering. This five volume set presents the results of an international forum for presentation and discussion of ongoing research in the field of coastal engineering, applications to design projects and case histories of completed projects. Solutions to problem in inlet management, beach fill technology, shoreline and environmental protection and restoration, and water quality are discussed. Topics include characteristics of coastal waves and currents, long period waves, storm surges and wave groups, coastal structures, coastal processes and sediment transport, and coastal , estuarine, and environmental problems. These proceedings benefit the engineering community, geologists, meteorologists, oceanographers and professionals in the construction industry.
