Description 1272-1280
Port development and associated constructions such as groins, jetties,
breakwaters along the shore front alter the coastal environment considerably. Gopalpur
(19°18′13″ N : 84°57′ 52″ E), a seasonal port along east coast of India is
under phases of development to an all weather open coast port and has a
significant impact on the coast. Field data collected on beach morphology,
waves, tides and currents at seasonal and annual basis for two years are
analyzed. Numerical modeling of hydrodynamic, wave, sediment transport and
shoreline evolution using DHI-Mike models are carried out. Present study
describes the field data, the hydrodynamics, wave induced sediment transport
and the nearshore circulation pattern suggesting an appropriate management
plan.
