Abstract |
Dredging in Coastal Waters is the first book dedicated to dredging and its environmental impact in the widest sense. It contains chapters on dredging operations in the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK, Spain, the US, Hong Kong and Singapore. Additional chapters discuss more general aspects, such as dredging techniques, monitoring of dredging operations, and the prospects of dredging in a changing environment. Furthermore, information is provided on dredging activities in different areas, giving an insight into the activities and problems (environmental or otherwise) involved in modern dredging. The book should be of interest to professionals and students, as well as general readers interested in dredging (e.g. engineers, planners and civil servants). |
