“Salinity and Tides in Alluvial Estuaries” (first published in 2005) presents an integrated theory for one-dimensional flow and transport in estuaries with an active morphology. The book provides a new approach with numerous illustrations and a comprehensive overview of the literature to date.

This book is a valuable theoretical resource for graduate students specialising in estuary processes and for researchers in related disciplines. It is also a useful reference work for practitioners and consultants, presenting simple analytical equations for tidal hydraulics, mixing and salt intrusion in estuaries.
