About 70% of global fish resources spend part of their life  cycle in the coastal seas, which accounts for 90% of marine biomass  yield. Freshwater and nutrients from the land have a great influence  on the coastal seas, especially since more than half the human  population lives within 100 km of a coast. Chemical reactions occur  there rapidly between substances from the land as they encounter  substances from the ocean. In terms of physics, a coastal sea acts as  a boundary layer and kinetic energy is actively exchanged there. \u003cbr\u003e  But if coastal oceanography were to be summed up in a single sentence,  it would be `the study that quantitatively makes clear the material  transport in the coastal sea area'. Because the physical, chemical and  biological processes relate to the material transport in the sea, it  can be said the coastal oceanography is a genuinely interdisciplinary  study. This book clarifies the quantitative material transport  processes in the coastal sea area, mainly from a physical viewpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-03-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792358954\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 164\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265599688844,"sku":"9780792358954","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792358954","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
