This book was released on 1986 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intent of this report is to provide a broad picture of the physical, mechanical and geological processes pertaining to coastal engineering along the shorelines of southern California, and to give references to data sources. Citation to the originators of concepts, theories, etc. are not always given because this is a data summary for the region, not a review of the nearshore processes literature. Interested readers should consult the extensive coastal engineering and nearshore processes literature for a historical perspective of the topics discussed. Because of space constraints, some topics are only scantily covered. Chapters 1 and 2 and portions of the following chapters were written by Douglas L. Inman. Chapter 3 and the sections on neashore waves and currents for each cell described in Chapters 4 through 11 were written by Robert T. Guza. For Chapters 4 through 11 the sections on coastal erosion, shoreline changes, sediment sources and the budget of sediment were written by David W. Skelly; while the sections on sediment transport modes and sediment sinks were written by Thomas E. White. Unpublished notes provided by Dr. Reinhard Flick were used for the preparation of Chapter 3.4 on tides and sea level fluctuations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Repeated aerial and ground-based observations that measured seasonal beach sand level changes along 195 km of coastline for up to 16 years were used to characterize and model Southern California beach sand level changes. A wave buoy network initialized a spectral refraction wave model that provided nearshore (~10 m depth) hourly wave estimates every ~100 m alongshore throughout the entire study region. Localized and regional biannual ground-based surveys captured seasonal subaerial beach profile changes across San Diego County, as well as the associated bathymetry changes not detected by aerial methods. Volume changes along the surveyed bathymetry transects varied seasonally owing to fluctuations in the incident wave energy. Comparative analysis of the volume changes along the beach profiles demonstrated estimating the fraction of subaqueous volume change based exclusively on subaerial observations is highly variable with a reduction in the total volume change captured by the subaerial observations particularly during periods of excessive erosion. Notably, the link between near-shore the displaced beach face sand volume (e.g. both subaerial and bathymetric profile components) and that of the subaerial beach is obscure. Observations at five focus sites in San Diego County characterized short-term and long-term shoreline changes and waves, including the impacts of two significant El Niño winters, from 1997 through 2013. An existing wave-driven shoreline model accurately predicted shoreline fluctuations during years of normative wave and beach conditions, but over-predicted erosion during remarkable erosion events such as El Niño. Modifications to the model formulation account for erosion resistant features such as non-erodible seawall back beaches or durable strata (e.g. cobbles) exposed during severe erosion. This improved the model skill (i.e. data to model correlation R2) during highly erosive wave events. High spatial resolution biannual aerial lidar surveys captured regional beach sand level changes spanning the entire 195-km study region. Alongshore variations in both waves and beach sand levels were notable with distinct large-scale differences occurring between the northern and southern halves of the study site. Additional ground-based data were used conjointly with the aerial observations to tune a regional shoreline model spanning 90 km of San Diego County coast.
