A Tale of Two Hydrogeology Problems in Coastal North Carolina -- Chapter 9. Drilling the North Carolina Coastal Plain – Discovering What Lies Beneath -- Chapter 10. Earthquake-Driven Coastal Change: Ghost Forests, Graveyards and “Komodo Dragons” -- Chapter 11. A Scientist’s Personal 70-Year Discourse with Past, Present and Future Coastal Change -- Chapter 12. Climate, Sea Level, and People – Changing South Florida’s Mangrove Coast -- Chapter 13. Pictures from Space and Feet in the Mud: Understanding the Value of the World’s Changing Mangrove Forests -- Chapter 14. What is Happening to the World’s Coral Reefs? -- Chapter 15.

The book communicates coastal geology such that the reader gets a better understanding of how scientists work and how scientific knowledge is acquired and how it progresses. It presents the human side of geologic research, including missteps, in this case, research on coastal change of the recent past, the present, and the near future. The audience for this volume is the general public, coastal managers, politicians, and decision makers in general, in the coastal realm. But the implications of this work with regard to future climate change and human responses are relevant globally.
