Overview

Models quantify shoreline change in Egypt's Damietta coast, indicating the need for effective sediment management strategies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to understand how sea level rise impacts shoreline change and sediment dynamics along the Damietta Coast in Egypt.
  • Numerical modeling of shoreline evolution using Delft3D-SWAN and MIKE 21 LITPACK suite.
  • Calibration of models for the years 2022-2023 to establish accuracy.
  • Simulations conducted for baseline and sea level rise scenarios over 10 years.
  • Shoreline excursion is significantly affected by sea level rise, leading to increased erosion and deposition.
  • Peak shoreline retreat surpasses 150 meters in erosion-prone areas due to SLR.
  • Overall sediment transport increases in the SLR-influenced scenario, indicating a shift in sediment dynamics.
