Two papers were recently accepted for presentation and publication at the 2011 ASCE COPRI Conference on Coastal Engineering Practice. Â One of the papers presents a critical analysis of strategies and efforts applied to combating the effects of the gulf oil spill in coastal Alabama.
The second paper presents findings related to the wave attenuation of bagged oyster shell when used as a breakwater material. Click on either one of the images at right to download a PDF of the extended abstract. Â Check back in May for a copy of the full proceedings paper.
