Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 94 peer-reviewed papers on coastal structures and coastal disasters. Topics include: natural and nature-based designs for coastal defense; wave run up and overtopping; wave loads on coastal structures; tsunamis; wave-soil-structure interaction; armor stability; urban shorelines and coastal structures; coastal risk and resilience; sea level rise and climate change; advances in coastal modeling; case studies; performance-based design of coastal infrastructure; field measurements and forensic studies; hurricanes and coastal storms; social and behavioral aspects of coastal disasters; coastal hazards mapping; coastal erosion and shoreline change; and vulnerability assessment and loss estimation. This proceedings is a companion to Coastal Structures and Solutions to Coastal Disasters 2015: Tsunamis and will be valuable to engineers, managers, planners, scientists, geologists, economists, oceanographers, and meteorologists working to reduce future impacts of coastal hazards.
