There was no latex style file available for the Journal of Coastal Research. Below you can find a .bst file that you can use to format your bibliography in the style of JCR.

You can use the file like this:

\bibliographystyle{jcr}	% (uses file "jcr.bst")
\bibliography{myrefs}		% expects file "myrefs.bib"

The file is made using the jcr.dbj file that is also attached. If you want to make some changes, change the jcr.dbj file and call:

latex jcr.dbj

This will result in a new jcr.bst file.

For formatting the rest of the latex file you'll also need the following macros:

\usepackage{times}
\renewcommand{\refname}{Literature cited} % custom heading for JCR
\renewcommand{\keywordsname}{ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS:} % custom named index words

After using this your paper is pretty much well formatted, except from some details in section header formatting. I didn't know how to fix these so I did those by hand.
