| Abstract | ||
| In the last years erosion phenomena in the Egyptian coast have been increased dangerously. This phenomena has started after the construction of the High Dam in Aswan. The High Dam prevented the sediment load from reaching the northern coast that causes the unbalance between erosion and sedimentation. The northern Egyptian coast erosion has reached serious limits in the last years , approximately, 100 m per year. The increasing of earth temperature and pools melting resulted in increasing of erosion phenomena in the northern Egyptian coast. Many cities and many resorts have been established along the north coast are exposed to serious dangerous from coast erosion. For this reasons this study have been occurred to understand it and to know its real size and to find the practical solution to solve this phenomena. | ||
