  • Assessment Impact of the Damietta Harbour (Egypt) and Its Deep Navigation Channel on Adjacent Shorelines
    Journal of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (2020) 20(4): 265-281 © 2020 APRH ISSN 1646-8872 DOI 10.5894/rgci-n338 url: https://www.aprh.pt/rgci/rgci-n338.html ASSESSMENT IMPACT OF THE DAMIETTA HARBOUR (EGYPT) AND ITS DEEP NAVIGATION CHANNEL ON ADJACENT SHORELINES Mohsen M. Ezzeldin1, Osami S. Rageh2, Mahmoud E. Saad3 @ ABSTRACT: Deep navigation channels have a great impact on adjacent beaches and crucial economic effects because of periodic dredging operations. The navigation channel of the Damietta harbour is considered a clear example of the sedimentation problem and deeply affects the Northeastern shoreline of the Nile Delta in Egypt. The aim of the present study is to monitor shoreline using remote sensing techniques to evaluate the effect of Damietta harbour and its navigation channel on the shoreline for the last 45 years. Also, the selected period was divided into two periods to illustrate the effect of man-made interventions on the shoreline. Shorelines were extracted from satellite images and then the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) was used to estimate accurate rates of shoreline changes and predict future shorelines evolution of 2030, 2040, 2050 and 2060. The Damietta harbour created an accretion area in the western side with an average rate of 2.13 m year-1. On the contrary, the shoreline in the eastern side of the harbour retreated by 92 m on average over the last 45 years. So, it is considered one of the main hazard areas along the Northeastern shoreline of the Nile Delta that needs a sustainable solution. Moreover, a detached breakwaters system is predicted to provide shore stabilization at the eastern side as the implemented one at Ras El-Bar beach.

  • Tectonic Evolution of the Eastern Mediterranean Basin and Its Significance for the Hydrocarbon Prospectivity of the Nile Delta Deepwater Area
    GeoArabia, Vol. 6, No. 3, 2001 Gulf PetroLink, Bahrain Tectonic Evolution of the Egyptian Mediterranean Basin Tectonic Evolution of the Eastern Mediterranean Basin and its Significance for the Hydrocarbon Prospectivity of the Nile Delta Deepwater Area Ahmed Abdel Aal1 , Ahmed El Barkooky, Marc Gerrits, Hans-Jürg Meyer, Marcus Schwander and Hala Zaki Shell Egypt NV ABSTRACT The deepwater area of the Nile Delta is within the eastern Mediterranean basin on the Nile Delta Cone between the Herodotus abyssal plain to the west and the Levant basin to the east. The complex evolution and interaction of the African, Eurasian and Arabian plates have shaped the Late Miocene to Recent Nile Cone and its substratum. The tectono- stratigraphic framework is controlled by deep-seated basement structures with distinct gravity and magnetic expressions, and by the interaction of the NW-trending Misfaq- Bardawil (Temsah) and NE-trending Qattara-Eratosthenes (Rosetta) fault zones. In addition, significant salt-induced deformation of a Messinian evaporitic sequence up to 4,000 m thick has occurred, together with large-scale rotational block movement. The deformational pattern is largely the result of multiphase tectonic movements along pre- existing basement faults on the continental margin of the Neo-Tethys ocean. The Nile Cone consists of late Paleogene to Late Miocene sediments that pre-date the Messinian evaporites, and Pliocene-Pleistocene sequences. In the east, the pre-salt deposits (as much as 3,000 m thick) are primarily deepwater sediments with local condensed sequences over syndepositional intrabasinal highs. Shale occurs westward across the Rosetta trend. The Messinian evaporitic sequence exhibits three distinct seismic facies suggesting cyclic deposition with the occurrence of interbedded anhydrite, salt and clastic sequences and pure halite deposition.
