Summary |
The report deals with the results of field research for forecasting of the beach deformation of the Black Sea coastal zone in Georgia - Ochamchire (Aphkhazeti), Batumi (Adjara)). The lab modeling is used to illuminate the process of erosion, as well. Phenomena that determine the coastal processes are rather diversified. Main reasons for the intensification of erosion is a violation of the natural regime of the coastal zone due to the capture of coastal material, the construction of hydro technical facilities , and, as a result, breaking of the alongshore sediment flow.
