In this context, the present Special Issue collects 15 papers which provide a representation of the present understanding of turbulent processes and their effects in river and maritime environments. The presented collection of papers is not exhaustive, but it highlights the key priority areas and knowledge gaps in this field of research. The published papers present the state-of-the-art knowledge of complex environmental flows which are useful for researchers and practitioners. The paper contents are an overview of some recent topics of research and an exposure of the current and future challenges associated with these topics.History of engineering and technologybicssc<i>Spartina maritima</i>ADCPadvectionbed shear stressbedrock canyonbillowbottom frictionbreaking wavescasting techniqueCFDchannel confluencescleftcoastal lagooncurrent flowdense jetdiffusiondilutiondissipationdrag coefficienteddy viscosityenergy dissipationflexible vegetationflow deflection zoneflow mixingflow resistanceflow retardation zoneflow separation zoneflow-through systemgravel-bed riversgravity currenthydrodynamic modelinclined negatively buoyant jetsjetsjunction angleKelvin-Helmholtzlaboratory experimentslobemacrovorticesmaritime areasmeandersMIKE 21 FM (HD)MIKE 3 FM (HD &mixingnonlinear shallow water equationsnumerical modelnumerical modellingPANORMUSphysical modellingplunging breaking wavespredictionregular wavesresidence timeriver mouthriversroughnesssea dischargesseabed frictionsecondary motionsmoothed particle hydrodynamics modelsspatial analysisspectral dissipationspectral modelsub-grid turbulencesubmerged ratiosurface wavesSVFtidal inletsTR)trajectoryturbulenceturbulence invariantsturbulent jetturbulent processesvegetation patchvelocityvorticitywake regionwave attenuationwave-current interactionwavesHistory of engineering and technologyDavies Peter Aauth287468Termini DonatellaauthMossa MicheleauthBOOK9910346858803321Turbulence in River and Maritime Hydraulics3011637UNINA
