| Abstract | ||||
| Coastal activities during the past five decades have resulted in considerable shoreline change along the northern coast of Sinai Peninsula. In the east of El Arish Harbor, the shoreline is continuously retreating. Previous activities to mitigate the erosion have not succeeded. For example, the groin field in the east of the El Arish Harbor has transferred the problem to the neighboring beaches farther downcoast. The shoreline change at El Arish Harbor was modeled using the coastal evolution model LITLINE. Having understood the coastal processes driving the shoreline change at this site, appropriate remedial measures were proposed to mitigate the problem. | ||||
