Sponsored by the Fluids Committee of the Engineering Mechanics Division of ASCE. This report provides environmental engineers with a comprehensive survey of recent developments in the application of fluid mechanics theories to treat environmental problems. Chapters cover principles of fluid mechanics, as well as contemporary applications to environmental problems involving river, lake, coastal, and groundwater areas. Topics include: turbulent diffusion; mixing of a turbulent jet in crossflow -- the advected line puff; multi-phase plumes in uniform, stratified, and flowing environments; turbulent transport processes across natural streams; three-dimensional hydrodynamic and salinity transport...

This collection contains 140 papers on the creative integration of aesthetics, water, and human needs into engineered projects presented at the 24th Annual Water Resources Planning and Management Conference, held in Houston, Texas, April 6-9, 1997.
Indexes materials appearing in the Society's Journals, Transactions, Manuals and reports, Special publications, and Civil engineering.
Sixty peer-reviewed papers presented at the April-May 1998 symposium focus on the exchange of knowledge between academics and practitioners on subjects of crucial to the successful design of offshore and coastal structures and to the study of pollutant transport in ocean waters. The papers present recent advances in the understanding, measurement, and prediction of wave kinematics, wave dynamics, and wave loads acting on offshore and coastal structures, and include new theories, models, statistics, and measurements.
