Proceedings of the Solutions to Coastal Disasters 2002 Conference, held in San Diego, California, February 24-27, 2002. Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration; Coastal States Organization; American Association of State Flood Plain Managers. This collection contains 85 papers presenting state-of-the-art information on coastal storms, seismic events, impacts of climate change, and shoreline change. Topics include: Causes: the research and study of forces and processes that cause or contribute to coastal disasters; Response Mitigation Strategies: the development of methods and strategies to prevent or decrease the adverse effects of coastal disasters; Design and Engineering: detailed examination of engineering approaches to coastal hazards and mitigation, and the consequences of these approaches; and Coastal Management: the policies, planning, and management efforts to minimize or avert coastal disasters.

Selected papers from the Coastal Structures and Solutions to Coastal Disasters Joint Conference 2015, held in Boston, Massachusetts, September 9–11, 2015. Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 26 peer-reviewed papers on all aspects of tsunamis. Topics include: tsunami generation and modeling; tsunami measurement and mitigation; tsunami morphology, sediments, and debris; and tsunami structure. This proceedings is a companion to Coastal Structures and Solutions to Coastal Disasters 2015: Resilient Coastal Communities and will be valuable to engineers, managers, planners, scientists, geologists, economists, oceanographers, and meteorologists working to reduce future impacts of coastal hazards.

Proceedings of the Solutions to Coastal Disasters 2005 Conference, held in Charleston, South Carolina, May 8-11, 2005. Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports and Rivers Institute of ASCE; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. This collection contains 80 papers focusing on the science and research tools, management procedures, and solutions that are explored and used during coastal disasters. Including coastal disaster events occurring through November 2004, papers discuss hazards on U.S. coastlines of the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, as well as Lake Ontario (Canada), the North Sea (Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom), the Pacific Ocean (California, Hawaii, Korea, Japan, and New Zealand), and the Indian Ocean (Bangladesh, India). Topics include: coastal management, coastal storms, impacts of climate change, shoreline change and response, tsunamis and seismic events, and wind.

Proceedings of the 2011 Solutions to Coastal Disasters Conference, held in Anchorage, Alaska, June 25-29, 2011. Sponsored by the Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute of ASCE; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration; and Federal Emergency Management Agency. This collection contains 79 papers that address the challenges and lessons that are being learned along the coastlines to avoid or minimize preventable losses. Topics include: sea-level rise and some emerging options for adaptation; hurricanes, typhoons, and storm surge damages; improved forecasting tools and opportunities to reduce damages in the future; coastal inundation and flooding; shoreline erosion and ways to study, understand, and adapt to shoreline change in the face of rising sea level; shoreline management and coastal hazard mitigation; vulnerability and adaptability of coastal structures and marine facilities; social science of natural disasters; and modeling efforts, field investigations, preparedness and lessons learned from recent tsunami events.
