Description
This volume contains most of the papers presented at the Sixth International Conference on Computer Modelling and Experimental Measurements of Seas and Coastal Regions. Presenting some of the most important recent developments in both fields, it highlights the importance of achieving harmonious and joint development between computer simulation and experimental techniques. The contributions address the study of seas and coastal regions under normal and extreme conditions, emphasising practical applications. They are grouped into the following sections: Shallow Water Studies; Estuarine Problems; Pollutant Transport and Dispersion; Oil Spills; Wave Studies; Coastal Erosion and Sedimentation; Sea Defence and Protection Systems; and Case Studies.
