Coastal regions all over the globe experience environmental pressure both due to human interventions, exploitation and occupation and due to climate change impacts. This coastal engineering course focuses on education and research related to coastal systems, such as dune and barrier coasts, estuaries, lagoons and larger composites like deltas. The course also focus is on the implementation of the Building with Nature concepts, viz. using natural processes to achieve more sustainable coastal systems

Coastal Dynamics
Judith Bosboom and Marcel J.F. Stive

,Coastal Dynamics

Judith Bosboom and Marcel J.F. Stive

This textbook on Coastal Dynamics focuses on the
interrelation between physical wave, flow and sediment
transport phenomena and the resulting morphodynamics of
a wide variety of coastal systems. The textbook is unique in
that it explicitly connects the dynamics of open coasts and
tidal basins; not only is the interaction between open coasts
and tidal basins of basic importance for the evolution of most
coastal systems, but describing the similarities between
their physical processes is highly instructive as well. This
textbook emphasizes these similarities to the benefit of
understanding shared processes such as nonlinearities
in flow and sediment transport. Some prior knowledge
with respect to the dynamics of flow, waves and sediment
transport is recommended.
