Intellectual Merit: The topic of coastal ocean simulation is central to many scientific questions and engineering challenges in ocean and environmental science today. The increase in human population in coastal regions, with concomitant exacerbation of issues associated with marine resource management, enforcement and security, has led to an increase in the importance of a quantitative understanding and prediction of coastal processes. All of these activities emphasize the expanding public and national interest in understanding coastal ocean phenomena, in their natural multi-disciplinary setting. Coastal Ocean simulation today requires physical, biological and geological simulations. The couplings of these sub-fields have led to specific outcomes of public and scientific interest: site-specific population dynamics of important species, environmental impacts of industrial actions, harmful algal blooms, offshore drilling, changes in coastal geomorphology, and marine operations (which include military and civilian issues).This Gordon Research Conference is devoted to the understanding and prediction of processes occurring in the estuarine, shelf, and shelf-break regions of the ocean. These are regions of the marine system that are subject to intense human forcing and interaction.Broader Impacts: This conference seeks, as do all GRC's, to gather leading people in the field and to bring them into contact with each other and with graduate students in relevant disciplines in an effort to seed new thoughts across the field. During this year's program eight of the thirty speakers and discussion leaders are women.

智力价值：沿海海洋模拟主题是当今海洋和环境科学中许多科学问题和工程挑战的核心。沿海地区人口的增加，以及随之而来的与海洋资源管理、执法和安全相关的问题的加剧，导致对沿海过程的定量理解和预测的重要性增加。所有这些活动都强调了公众和国家在自然多学科背景下了解沿海海洋现象的兴趣不断扩大。如今的沿海海洋模拟需要物理、生物和地质模拟。 这些子领域的结合导致了公众和科学兴趣的具体成果：重要物种的特定地点种群动态、工业活动的环境影响、有害藻华、海上钻探、沿海地貌的变化和海洋作业（其中包括军事和民用问题）。这次戈登研究会议致力于了解和预测发生在海洋河口、陆架和陆架断裂区域的过程。这些是海洋系统中受到强烈人类强迫和相互作用的区域。 更广泛的影响：与所有 GRC 一样，本次会议旨在聚集该领域的领先人士，并使他们相互接触并与该领域的研究生进行接触。相关学科，努力在整个领域播下新思想。在今年的活动中，三十位演讲者和讨论领袖中有八位是女性。
