Klappentext Understanding the movement of cohesive sediment is important for the development and maintenance of harbours and navigation channels in estuaries as well as controlling the environmental impact of sediments in a given area. This book provides engineers with a practical framework for understanding the processes by which cohesive sediments are transported! deposited! and eroded.
