Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Estuarine and Coastal Modeling, held in Monterey, California, November 3-5, 2003.

This collection contains 66 papers on recent developments and applications of estuarine and coastal models. The primary focus is on application of models to bays, sounds, lagoons, estuaries, embayments, bights, and coastal seas.

Models under consideration include those that can:

• be applied to problems in hydrodynamics, water quality, and sediment transport;
• solve engineering and environmental impact assessment problems, and
• address regulatory requirements for facility sighting and operations;

Coastal engineering professionals will find the proceedings a valuable reference.
