商品簡介
This work examines the geomorphology of salt marshes and the interactions between landscape and biota in these environments. Recent scientific results in geomorphology and ecology are presented and compared within an integrated framework, and new remote sensing techniques are described. The book lays the foundations for a new understanding of coastal processes in the context of coupled biological and physical models. The book will be of interest to marine geologists and geophysicists, biological oceanographers, hydrologists, and their students. Material originated at a 2002 meeting of the American Geophysical Union in Washington DC. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
