Publisher's Synopsis
The papers selected for this volume, in consultation with Professor Wiegel, offer a sampling of the breadth and depth of his work and form a tribute to his long-lasting accomplishments. Presented in chronological order, these papers trace the evolution of not only his career, but of coastal engineering itself. Coastal engineers-but also engineers working with wind, water, structures, and sedimentation issues-continue to benefit from Wiegel's generosity as a researcher, colleague, and teacher.
