- W2089973446 abstract "A combination of remote sensing, field surveys and sedimentological analysis of beach sands is used to assess changes of the shorelines consequent to the construction of a harbour at Damietta on the Nile Delta. The results indicate that harbour construction, and, in particular, the construction of two jetties that extend out from the harbour entrance, have created a discontinuity in the eastward-moving littoral drift. Imagery from Landsat Thematic Mapper provides crude assessments of the rate of up-drift accretion and down-drift erosion of the shorelines, despite the relatively coarse pixel size (30 m) and short time-scale of the monitoring period (1984–1987–1991). Conventional bathymetric surveys highlight changes in the nearshore environment associated with the growth of the updrift accretionary wedge and siltation of the harbour access channel. Beach sediments also provide a record of the changes in erosion and accretion-dominated process domains on both sides of the harbour entrance. The accretionary beaches west of the western jetty having a finer mean grain size with a tendency to poorer sorting skewed to the finer fraction and preferential increase in the assemblage of low-density non-opaque heavy minerals. The beach sands of the erosional shoreline east of the eastern jetty are characterised by coarser mean grain size with a tendency to better sorting skewed to the coarser fraction and heavy mineral assemblages dominated by opaques and high-density non-opaques. The synergistic use of remote sensing, bathymetric surveying and sedimentology provides evidence that changes have affected a much larger area than predicted at the time of harbour construction." @default.
