Abstract :
The wave and current patterns of the Beris port and its surroundings before and
after construction of the breakwater structure was investigated by numerical
model, MIKE 21. For this purpose, the required data was provided and the
model was prepared for implementation within a month from July 22 to August
21, 2016. In order to verify the modeling results, the extracted data were
compared with the data derived from the global wave model; WAVEWATCH
III and ECMWF. The simulation results show the significant effect of the
breakwater on the stillness of the basin and the change in flow direction.
According to the position of the port and the morphology of the coast, is
expected to parallels sedimentation caused by waves and currents of the region
focused on the long arm breakwaters and adjacent to the entrance mouth of
breakwaters, as well as in the coastal part of the small arm of the breakwater.
