Geographical Coverage Georgian Black Sea coast, area of the resort facilities of the Cape Bichvinta.
Summary Project aims to investigate the process of transformation of sea shore area of the Bichvinta resort under the influence of catastrophic storms generated by strong winds of SE direction. Investigations were executed using the lab spatial research models with scale 1:40 . As a result of modelling the following data was received: 1. Transformation rates in accordance with the strenght and duration of storms of ES direction; 2. Intesity of eroson of submarine slope and sea shoreline; 3. Redistribution of matter (material) over the area; 4. Stability rate of the existing engineering constructions.
