for
presentations related to the conference theme "<b><span
style="font-weight: bold;">Coastal Engineering Manual in Practice"</span></b>.
The aim of
the conference is to provide a forum for the presentation and
discussion of
practical applications and “lessons learned” regarding the USACE <u>Coastal
Engineering Manual</u>. The anchor workshop will feature Steven Hughes,
Ph.D.,
P.E. and Jeffrey Melby, Ph.D. of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Coastal
Hydraulics Laboratory discussing <i><u><span
style="font-style: italic;">Techniques
for Analyzing Wave Processes at Coastal Inlets and Structures</span></u></i>.
In addition, the Waterways Group/WHOI Sea Grant is seeking presenters
for
a technical session on the practical application of the CEM. To
propose a
presentation, please send an abstract with your suggested topic idea
and a list
of participants. If approved, you will be requested to attend and
present
at the conference.</span></font></p>
