DESCRIPTION:
Solved examples and chapter-end exercises are also included. Illustrations of fine sediment transport processes and their complexities given in the book are taken from field and laboratory-based observations by the author and his students, as well as numerous investigators. Coastal and marine geologists, biologists, and ecosystems analysts.. Interested students should have a basic understanding of the mechanics of fluid flow and open channel hydraulics. Even though the entire coverage is "introductory", the twelve chapters collectively include more material than what can be reasonably dealt with in a one semester, three-credit course. The book includes an extensive description of the components of fine-grained -- especially cohesive -- sediment transport. Readership: Civil Engineering upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, researchers, and engineering consultants. The text is a compilation of the author's lecture notes from nearly four decades of teaching and guiding graduate students in civil and coastal engineering. It covers the developm
