George Maul, Florida Institiute of Technology, Melbourne, USA Scientists and engineers embarking on their first voyage for oceanographic or meteorological research are often unprepared for the experience. Going to sea involves learning a new language – that of the seaman. This is necessary for clear communications, for the safety and well-being of the members of the scientific party and the ship’s crew. Oceanographer’s Companion is intended to familiarize a student with the basics of navigation, seamanship, marine engineering, communications, safety-of-life-at-sea, shiphandling, knots and splices, first aid, and so much more. The book will have a very practical feel with lots of examples.

Urban Pluvial and Coincidental Flooding Edited by Ä&#x152;edo Maksimovic, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Imperial College London, London, UK and Adrian Saul, Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, The University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK Series: Urban Water Series Pluvial flooding is flooding resulting from rainfall-generated overland flow, before the runoff enters any watercourse or sewer. Urban pluvial flooding arises from high intensity extreme rainfall events. This volume deals with the many aspects involved with pluvial and coincidental flooding, investigating causes and consequences. Various techniques to anticipate and forecast floods are presented, to help reduce their impact and limit consequences, both in the short and long term. Case studies and instructions for training and education are also included. The chapters were contributed by experts on the subject, working on flood management and flood impact reduction in many countries.
