520 8  "Based on a major international study, this volume 
       provides a synthesis of scientific knowledge on megacity 
       urbanization on the coast, environmental impacts, risks 
       and management choices, including a focus on adaptation, 
       mitigation and disaster risk management. It is the primary
       output of a major international scientific project 
       sponsored by the International Geosphere Biosphere 
       Programme, the Land-Ocean Interactions at the Coastal Zone
       programme of IHDP/IGBP, and others. It brings together the
       work of over 60 contributing authors and an international 
       review board. It presents the international policy and 
       academic community with an unbiased and high quality 
       assessment of the state-of-the art in areas of social-
       ecological systems interaction. One of its main messages 
       is that while we know a great deal about megacities of 
       more than ten million people and about urban processes, 
       and about coasts and their physical and ecological 
       processes (aquatic, physical and atmospheric), there is 
       relatively little work that focusses primarily at points 
       of intersection between large-scale urbanization and the 
       coast. The book responds to this gap by providing the 
       first global synthesis of megacity and large urban region 
       urbanization on the coast. Its focus is on environmental 
       and development challenges, climate change and disaster. 
       It is interdisciplinary and brings together world 
       recognised scientists (including many IPCC lead authors) 
       on urban climate and atmosphere, disaster risk management,
       demography and coastal environments"--Publisher
