History and Heritage of Coastal Engineering

Coastal engineering is a relatively new discipline within the field of civil engineering. The first International Coastal Engineering Conference was convened in Long Beach, California, in 1950. The theme of the twenty-fifth or silver ICCE held in Orlando, Florida, in September, 1996, was History and Heritage of Coastal Engineering to honor those individuals and institutions contributing to the foundations of the discipline. As part of the celebration at this premier technical conference, this volume was conceived to document the history of coastal engineering in the 15 countries which have hosted the ICCE. Coastal engineering works have been conducted for hundreds and even thousands of years for port development, coastal hazard protection, and reclamation of land from the sea. The needs of the different countries and the approaches taken are unique and document the evolution of society and its relation with the coast from 15 perspectives. ancestors, as well as the accomplishments made in modern times as documented in this volume rich with information, colorful anecdotes, and citations to many almost-forgotten original references worthy of re-examination.

Meeting Research and Education Needs in Coastal Engineering

After discussions with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the U.S. Geological Survey, and the Office of Naval Research, the National Research Council (NRC) convened a committee under the auspices of the Marine Board to examine present and anticipated national needs in coastal engineering research and education and assess the adequacy and effectiveness of existing institutions in meeting those needs.
