Hydrology and the hydrosphere

This is a broad-based review of the environmental, oceanographic, engineering, and management aspects of coastal lagoons summarized in a convenient single volume.

This timely study is concerned with the current record of sea-level changes during the past 10,000 years; their rates, and our ability to estimate these changes accurately.

The Antarctic Sector of the Pacific covers the area between Australia and South America south of about 45(deg)S.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 19th International Liege Colloquium on Ocean Hydrodynamics, the programme of which focused on the relationships between small-scale mixing and large-scale features, transports and processes.

The Washington-Oregon coastal zone is a classical Eastern Boundary Current region.

There is an intuitive belief among scientists that each estuary or lagoon is unique and different.

This book describes recent advances in the morphodynamics of mixed sand and gravel Mediterranean coasts, and provides updates and new methods for their study and management.

This book presents a set of approaches for the real-time monitoring and control of drinking-water networks based on advanced information and communication technologies.

This is a special volume on ocean biogeography containing chapters bringing the wealth of knowledge of Russian scientists to a global audience.

Advances in Marine Biology contains up-to-date reviews of all areas of marine science, including fisheries science and macro/micro fauna.

This authoritative review will be valuable reference for marine biologists, ecologists, and taxonomists.

Sea cucumbers belong to the Phylum Echinodermata.

Despite advances in the long-range electrostatic double-layer force, which depends strongly on ionic strength in water by using theoretical models such as DLVO (Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek), the structure of confined water in air still remains widely unknown and has led to a variety of unexplained phenomena.

This book addresses the Arctic and the northern regions by exploring cold waters and northern seascapes.

A systematic, unifying approach to the dynamics of the ocean and atmosphere is given in this book, with emphasis on the larger-scale motions (from a few kilometers to global scale).

Nitrogen is one of the most critical elements for all life forms.

This book provides contributions from leading experts on the integration of novel sensing technologies to yield unprecedented observations of coupled biological, chemical, and physical processes in the ocean from the macro to micro scale.

The importance and ecological significance of estuaries has been long appreciated.

This book uses the Lagrangian approach, especially useful and convenient for studying large-scale transport and mixing in the ocean, to present a detailed view of ocean circulation.

Major advancement in the U-Th measurement techniques since the 1990's have resulted in new opportunities for the use of these nuclides to probe into aquatic processes in greater detail.

Many scientists either working on the El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) problem or its many applications have not been trained in both the equatorial ocean and atmospheric dynamics necessary to understand it.

The world is faced with a growing number of complex and interconnected challenges.

This book is an overview of the state-of-the art developments in sedimentology of tsunami-induced and tsunami-affected deposits, namely tsunamiites.

Although it is generally accepted that the Arctic Ocean is a very sensitive and important region for changes in the global climate, this region is the last major physiographic province of the earth whose short-and long-term geological history is much less known in comparison to other ocean regions.

This book examines the intricate web linking water science and society using diverse philosophical lenses.
