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.inclined negatively buoyant jetsflow mixingKelvin–Helmholtzflow-through systemmixingregular wavesvegetation patchturbulence invariantsjunction anglegravel-bed riversspatial analysisspectral modelcoastal lagoonroughnessMIKE 21 FM (HD)billowdissipationriver mouthwavesadvectionwave–current interactionplunging breaking wavesturbulenceflow deflection zonesmoothed particle hydrodynamics modelsnumerical modellingphysical modellingsurface waveslobedilutionnumerical modelchannel confluencespredictionmeandersCFDbedrock canyonMIKE 3 FM (HD &SVFdiffusiondense jetsub-grid turbulenceflow separation zonebreaking waves<i>Spartina maritima</i>jetsmaritime areasflow retardation zoneseabed frictionsea dischargessecondary motionADCPcleftsubmerged ratiolaboratory experimentswake regioneddy viscositybottom frictioncasting techniqueturbulent jettidal inletsriversnonlinear shallow water equationsvorticityhydrodynamic modelflow resistancePANORMUSspectral dissipationTR)macrovorticesturbulent processesvelocitytrajectoryflexible vegetationenergy dissipationgravity currentbed shear stresscurrent flowdrag coefficientresidence timewave attenuationDavies Peter Aauth287468Termini DonatellaauthMossa MicheleauthBOOK9910346858803321Turbulence in River and Maritime Hydraulics3011637UNINA
