MODELING THE COAST DYNAMICS OF THE IMERETINSKAYA LOWLAND
https://doi.org/10.15356/0435-4281-2013-3-36-40
Abstract
It is shown that the coastline near the canyon Novyi is characterized by a rapid recession (about 7 m/y). Simultaneously the coast prominence at Cape Konstantinovskiy is truncated (4 m/y), and the eroded material is mainly transported into adjacent canyons. At the east ledges of the canyons Novyi and Konstantinivskiy the wave refraction leads to the energy concentration and the increase of longshore drift capacity. Because of intensive incision the drift of deposits will after some time run out. In order to save the beaches a pebble material should be placed into eroded coast sections (90 and 50 m3m-1y-1, respectively).
