Introduction to Coastal Processes and GeomorphologyRobin Davidson-Arnott, Bernard Bauer, Chris Houser 9781108439862 AUD $ 81.95 / NZD $ 88.95 Accessible to students from a range of disciplines, the quantitative approach of this book helps to build a solid understanding of wave and current processes that shape coastlines. From sandy beaches to coral reefs, the major coastal features are related to contemporary processes and to sea-level changes over the past 25,000 years. Key equations describing these processes and standard methods used to collect measurements are all presented in this overview. Designed to support a one- or two-semester course and grounded in current research, this second edition features cutting-edge new topics, insights from new models and technologies, additional global examples and an enhanced package of online teaching material.
