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 SedimentsResearch & information: generalbicsscKalgoorlie-Boulder (SE WA Goldfields SH51-09)aiatsispcoastal boulder depositcoastal defence systemcoastal engineeringcoastal lagooncoastal sediment transportcoastal zonecontaminated sediment managementcross-shore sediment transportdissolved and particulate metalsdredgingdredging and disposalearly diagenetic processengineering practiceenrichment factorenvironmental effectsequilibrium profilegroundwater dischargesGulf of California (Mexico)harbor siltationhigh-resolutionhurricane storm surgehydrodynamic equationslabile formsmarine sedimentmathematical modeling and monitoringmathematical modellingmorphological dynamicsnumerical modelsediment dispersionsediment handlingsediment spilloversediment transportsedimentsstorm deformationstidal flowsunderwater barwater qualitywave transformationXBeachYangtze estuaryResearch & information: generalRisio Marcello Diedt1309653Hayes Donald FedtPasquali DavideedtRisio Marcello DiothHayes Donald FothPasquali DavideothBOOK9910557387603321Marine Sediments3029515UNINA
