Challenges in Estuarine and Coastal Science by John Humphreys

Challenges in Estuarine and Coastal Science by John Humphreys

Estuarine and coastal waters are acknowledged points of anthropogenic impact. For practitioners, academics and students in the field of coastal science and policy, this book examines and exemplifies current and future challenges: from upper estuaries to open coasts and adjacent seas; from tropical to temperate latitudes; from Europe to Australia.

I enjoyed this volume and learned a great deal from itThe contributions are concise and generally thought-provoking, and a useful aid for teaching across many levels; the volume will also bring new researchers or interdisciplinary colleagues in allied fields up-to-date.

-- David M. Paterson, Ocean Challenge
