1. Introduction
Construction of the low Aswan dam in 1902 and the
high Aswan dam in 1964 has almost completely
interrupted the Nile River sediment discharge to the sea
(Inman et al, 1976)
Bardawil lagoon sandbar and Delta continue to act as a
significant source and supplier of sand to Gaza coast
(Inman et al, 1976)
Most sediments coming to Gaza are originally from Nile
River and it is about 350,000 cubic meter annually
(Perlin and Kit, 1999)

1. Introduction
Alongshore sediment transport can calculate using the following
expressions:
CERC expression
(1)
Kamphuis expression
(2)
where
Hb = breaking wave height,
mb = seabed slop,
D50 = characteristic rock diameter,
αb = breaking wave angle.

1. Introduction
In recent decades, the coast of Gaza has been
plagued by a serious shortage of sand and by erosion11
4
1. Introduction
The coast of Gaza was affected by man-made structures
prior to the fishing harbour (Zviely and Klein, 2003)
In 1972 two groins, 120m long each 500m apart
12
5The erosion was controlled by a series of nine
detached breakwaters built in 1978
The detached
breakwaters, 50-120 m
long, were built 50 m
from the coast line at a
depth of 1 m
1. Introduction
13
6 In 1994, the construction of Gaza fishing harbor started
and completed in 1998. The construction negatively
increase the erosion rates
The fishing
harbor extends
some 500m into
the sea,
enabling access
to vessels up to
6m deep.
1. Introduction

2. Study Area
The study covers an area
extended from Wadi Gaza up to
3km north the Gaza fishing
harbour
15
3. Materials and Methods
Data were collected from analyses of Landsat
images from 1972 to 2010 and combined with
sample collection for grain size analyses in
order to study the shoreline change
Numerical model runs to predict the
morphodynamics around the mitigation
structures were carried out

3. Materials and Methods
The infrared band was selected for
the subsequent image processing.
The image processing procedures
were carried out using ERDAS
Imagine and ArcGIS
20
3.2 Numerical model
The relocation of fishing harbor to offshore,
groins field system, detached breakwaters and
wide-crested submerged breakwaters were
suggested and examined using the
morphodynamic numerical model of nearshore
waves, currents, and sediment transport in order
to mitigate the coastal erosion (Seif et al., 2011)

Accretion and erosion rates for the study area
4.1 Remote sensing findings
The impact has extended to about 2.5km
to north and to south the harbor
The waterline advanced at the south of
harbor by 0.75 m year-1 and treated at the
north of harbor by 1.15 m year-1
22
4.2 Sediment transport rates
The net annual rate of wave-induced
alongshore sediment transport range from
minimum 160×103 to maximum 220×103 m3,
and the average annual rate of 190×103 m3,
northward
The sand volume of accretion was estimated
80×103 m3 per year

The erosion problem along Gaza beach is due
to the man-made structures as confirmed by
analyzing the historical satellite images from
1972 to 2010
The numerical model results show that the
offshore harbor is the best alternative for Gaza
beach restoration
Alternatively, the wide-crested submerged
breakwater, “artificial reef”, is an effective
structure for preventing sandy beach erosion
