... All during his long professional career, Joseph Caldwell devoted a significant amount of time to engineering society activities. He was a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, International Association for Hydraulic Research, Coastal Engineering Council of the Engineering Foundation, Marine Technology Society, American Geophysical Union, International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, and Washington Academy of Science.
From page 39...
... His out standing contributions in coastal engineering are well documented in his numerous writings in books, encyclopedias, and professional journals, but his influence on the prevention of coastal erosion is more far reaching than the publications indicate. It provides the basis for engineers to conserve and to improve our beaches and shorelines for use as recreational areas, as wildlife habitats, and as barriers to coastal flooding.
