Introduction -- Fundamentals of wind, waves, tides and fluid flow -- Wave theories -- Wave forces on coastal and offshore structures -- Wave statistics and wave prediction -- Sediment transport in coastal region

Summary: "In the recent past, mushrooming coastal industries and human settlements have led to fast depletion of coastal features, overexploitation of both living and non-living ocean resources and abuse of ocean and coastal waters, resulting in nature's aggression in the form of tsunami and storms. It is therefore necessary to understand the nature to maintain harmony. This book deals with the characteristics of various natural processes that govern the coastal equilibrium.
