They represent the interface between fluvial, coastal and marine environments and they contain the sedimentary record of geological changes among these systems. However, detailed case studies on the morphodynamics and sedimentary evolution of different estuarine environments are notably lacking. This book focuses on the use of high-resolution geophysical techniques, field observations and modeling to investigate the morphodynamics of estuaries on both glaciated and non-glaciated coasts and on different time scales. Papers in this book offer a new approach to nearshore and estuary studies, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary techniques and data integration. Results of these studies have important implications for estuary resource management and shoreline stability. This book will be of interest to sedimentologists, coastal and Quaternary geologists, environmental scientists, and coastal managers. 0aMINES AND MINERAL RESOURCES. 0aOCEANOGRAPHY. 0aSEDIMENTOLOGY. 0aPHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY. 0aENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT.14aGEOSCIENCES.24aSEDIMENTOLOGY.24aPHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY.24aAPPLIED GEOSCIENCES.24aOCEANOGRAPHY.24aMINERAL RESOURCES.24aENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT.1 aKnight, Jasper.eeditor.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer eBooks08iPrinted edition:z9781402032950 0aCoastal Systems and Continental Margins,x1384-6434 ;v840uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/1-4020-3296-XzVer el texto completo en las instalaciones del CICY
