| Abstract | ||
| Alexandria beach exposure to the ongoing erosion processes. This led to change the coastline shape, and erosion beaches. Which are necessitated establishing numbers of engineering structures? To limit the erosion of the beach, and arise beaches again. These constructions have a positive impact in some areas and negative ones in other areas. This study exposed the recent coastline changes between 1985 -2012, and evaluates constructions in some placements, to determine their geomorphological effect in the study area. | ||
