This publication provides a practical analysis of the sea breeze circulation and how it affects the several applications associated with coastal areas. These applications could range from recreational activities to extensive commercial endeavors. The applied information presented is based on several years of evaluating the sea breeze utilizing innovative monitoring/modeling methods and procedures. The intent of this writing is not to include rigorous equations and detailed descriptions that define the physics and dynamics of the sea breeze. The purpose of this publication is to provide relevant and applicable concepts for practitioners involved with the coastal environment. These applied concepts will therefore enable them to have a working knowledge of the sea breeze, so they can utilize this knowledge to ensure that their endeavors are efficient and cost-effective. As a note for interested readers, the equations and detailed descriptions that explain the physics of the sea breeze are presented in the various references provided in this publication. Furthermore, included are implications and suggestions for further research and applied studies that should enhance the understanding of sea breeze circulation and why it has substantial effects on the coastal environment.

Almost half the U.S. population lives along the coast. In another 20 years this population is expected to more than double in size. The unique weather and climate of the coastal zone, circulating pollutants, altering storms, changing temperature, and moving coastal currents affect air pollution and disaster preparedness, ocean pollution, and safeguarding near-shore ecosystems. Activities in commerce, industry, transportation, freshwater supply, safety, recreation, and national defense also are affected. The research community engaged in studies of coastal meteorology in recent years has made significant advancements in describing and predicting atmospheric properties along coasts. Coastal Meteorology reviews this progress and recommends research that would increase the value and application of what is known today.

Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 22 (thesis year 1977) a total of 10,658 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 227 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 22 reports theses submitted in 1977, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
