Engineering of tidal inlets; References; Index.ReviewsAuthor InformationJ. van de Kreeke is Emeritus Professor at the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, University of Miami, where his research focused on coastal engineering and estuarine and nearshore hydrodynamics. He has published extensively on tidal inlets and is the editor of Physics of Shallow Estuaries and Bays (1986). In 2004, Professor van de Kreeke received the Bob Dean Coastal Research Award from the Florida Shore and Beach Preservation Association for world-renowned research on tidal inlets. R. L. Brouwer, while at Technische Universiteit Delft, The Netherlands, wrote both his MSc and PhD theses on the subject of cross-sectional stability of double inlet systems. He continued working on this subject as a postdoctoral fellow and at the same time did pioneering work in deploying drones for coastal and inlet research. He has published several papers on double inlet systems in refereed journals and conference proceedings. Presently, he is employed as a senior researcher at Flanders Hydraulic Research in Antwerp, Belgium. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
