Description
This article provides an alternative view of coastal defenses, looking at the methods engineers use to protect coasts and the problems that can arise. It provides case studies of different techniques and their effects on the coastline.
This work provides an alternative view of coastal defenses, rather than the tradional one suppilied by pure engineering books. It presents the broad spectrum of methods, which engineers use to protext the coastline with case studies for and against each of the techniques to investigate the sorts of issues that can arise as a result.
