Résumé
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the recent developments on river, coastal and estuarine morphodynamics through a collection of review papers written by well-recognized experts in the field. Apart from geoscientists it is also of special interest to people involved in fluid mechanics who want to understand near wall turbulence and the effects of coherent structures on the mechanisms of sediment transport. Though aimed at geomorphologists and sedimentologists the terminology employed in the book makes it generally accessible to engineers, physicists and applied mathematicians at the postgraduate level. The contributions are well illustrated with splendid pictures of various morphodynamic natural patterns.

À propos des auteurs
Giovanni Seminara graduated in Civil Engineering at the University of Geneva and completed his education at Imperial College (London) where he was awarded his Ph.D. in 1976. G. Seminara is presently Professor of Fluid Mechanics at the Department of Environmental Engineering of the University of Genova. His research interests encompass basic and applied aspects of fluid mechanics with particular emphasis on river and estuarine morphodynamics.
Paolo Blondeaux graduated in Civil Engineering at the University of Geneva and is presently Professor of Fluid Mechanics at the Department of Environmental Engineering of the same University. His research interests range over many aspects of basic and applied fluid mechanics such as vorticity dynamics, unsteady boundary layers, surface gravity waves and coastal morphodynamics.
