This complex region, which functions as the interface between land and water, is studied from the point of view of the sea, land and estuaries. The approach must necessarily be multidisciplinary, as concepts, principles, and practices are often overlapped and interlaced. This volume, organized by alphabetical entries, deals with all aspects of processes, features, and areas in what is commonly referred to as the “coastal zone.” Experts from various sciences deal, in a series of essays, with atmosphere and oceanography, ecology, engineering and technology, geomorphology, climate change, erosion processes, and human activities, among others.
