Download or read book Coast of California Storm and Tidal Waves Study Southern California Coastal Processes Data Summary written by Douglas L. Inman and published by . 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 Unpublished notes provided by Dr.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: This report presents a data summary of socioeconomic data for the six Southern California coastal counties from San Luis Obispo south through San Diego counties. This study is part of the coast of California storm and tidal waves study currently being by the United States Corps of Engineers. The five categories of interest in the data search were: (1) Coastal land use and land values, (2) Beach names and ownership, (3) Current (and future) populations and geographic origins of beach uses, (4) Local and regional perceptions of coastal erosion. Beach use, (5) Coastal storm damages, Each of these five categories re addressed county by county with available statics presented. Keywords: Coastal Land use, Beach use, Coastal Storm damage, and Coastal erosion.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tide gauges show that global sea level has risen about 7 inches during the 20th century, and recent satellite data show that the rate of sea-level rise is accelerating. As Earth warms, sea levels are rising mainly because ocean water expands as it warms; and water from melting glaciers and ice sheets is flowing into the ocean. Sea-level rise poses enormous risks to the valuable infrastructure, development, and wetlands that line much of the 1,600 mile shoreline of California, Oregon, and Washington. As those states seek to incorporate projections of sea-level rise into coastal planning, they asked the National Research Council to make independent projections of sea-level rise along their coasts for the years 2030, 2050, and 2100, taking into account regional factors that affect sea level. Sea-Level Rise for the Coasts of California, Oregon, and Washington: Past, Present, and Future explains that sea level along the U.S. west coast is affected by a number of factors. These include: climate patterns such as the El Niño, effects from the melting of modern and ancient ice sheets, and geologic processes, such as plate tectonics. Regional projections for California, Oregon, and Washington show a sharp distinction at Cape Mendocino in northern California. South of that point, sea-level rise is expected to be very close to global projections. However, projections are lower north of Cape Mendocino because the land is being pushed upward as the ocean plate moves under the continental plate along the Cascadia Subduction Zone. However, an earthquake magnitude 8 or larger, which occurs in the region every few hundred to 1,000 years, would cause the land to drop and sea level to suddenly rise.

This book was released on 1985 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography is presented in four categories: Coastal processes; Geology and geomorphology; Hydrology and hydraulics; and Meteorology. This report is part of the Coast of California Storm and Tital Waves Study currently being conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Los Angeles District. Annotations typically give information on author, publication date, title, publication citation, content description, categories of information contained in publications, topical key words, and geographical key words for the publication. Citations are grouped by general subject and listed in alphabetic order by author. Bibliography was compiled using a computer data base which limits the amount of data stored per entry. Consequently, data in many general references are described only to a regional, not site-specific, level using a limited number of key words. A maximum of four authors are cited for each publication. Keywords: Coastal geology, Storms, Ocean waves, Tsunamis, Storm surges, Sediment transport, Abstracts.
