Long term variations in shoreline wave conditions around the United Kingdom - interim report (SR 238)

An assessment is being made of long term changes in wave conditions around the UK coast, and how these changes may affect the management and planning of coastal defences. This interim report covers work done during the first year of a two year research programme which ends in March 1991. The first year's work involved a literature review, a review of long term wind and wave data, and establishment of research contacts. A longer final report on the project will be issued in about April 1991.
