Coastal Planning And Management

The second edition of "Coastal Planning and Management" provides a comprehensive toolkit for both coastal professionals and students of coastal management.
The important link between coastal planning and management is presented, with emphasis on tools for the development, evaluation and implementation of all key types of coastal management plans. It gives professional students the opportunity to choose from a variety of established planning and management techniques.
The second edition broadens the theoretical basis of the book, and includes additional analysis of coastal planning styles and approaches such as ecosystem-based and values/societal planning. There are new case studies from all over the world, and updates of progress on the case studies from the first edition are given. Case studies come from Europe, North America, Asia, the Indo-Pacific, Australia, Africa and the Middle East.
Drawing on examples of coastal planning and management from around the world, authors provide clear and practical guidance, particularly for people who make daily decisions about the coast.
"Coastal Planning and Management," second edition, is a valuable resource for professionals in environmental and planning consultancies, academics and researchers in the fields of geography, marine and environmental science, marine and coastal engineering and marine policy and planning.
