Estuarine, coastal, and harbor areas often undergo operations to nourish beaches, to maintain navigation channels, and to remove contaminated sediment. Hence, much research is needed related to the sediment processes, transport, and related environmental aspects of marine sediments. The aim of this Special Issue is to exhibit novel research results in this field. Particular attention is paid to water quality and environmental aspects relating to sediment transport driven by anthropogenic activities and natural phenomena: spillover due to tidal processes, metals mobility, coastal modifications driven by extreme events and mean wave climate, sediments re-suspension and dispersion related to marine sediment handling.Marine Sediments Research & information: generalbicssccoastal zonestorm deformationsunderwater barXBeachwave transformationcross-shore sediment transportequilibrium profiledredging and disposalenvironmental effectsmathematical modeling and monitoringsediment dispersionsediment handlingcoastal boulder deposithurricane storm surgehydrodynamic equationsGulf of California (Mexico)coastal lagoondissolved and particulate metalssedimentslabile formsenrichment factorearly diagenetic processgroundwater dischargesYangtze estuarytidal flowssediment transportsediment spillovermorphological dynamicshigh-resolutionnumerical modelmarine sedimentcontaminated sediment managementcoastal sediment transportharbor siltationdredgingwater qualitycoastal engineeringcoastal defence systemmathematical modellingengineering practiceResearch & information: generalRisio Marcello Diedt1309653Hayes Donald FedtPasquali DavideedtRisio Marcello DiothHayes Donald FothPasquali DavideothBOOK9910557387603321Marine Sediments3029515UNINA
