The Effect of Dadap Port Structure in Indramayu on Coastal Morphology
Human activities in coastal area will generally lead to a greater erosion rate due to the loss of natural protection or inappropriate structure. Dadap Beach, located at Juntinyuat District, Indramayu, West Java is one of the locations experiencing problems above. In 2003, a Fishing Port was built on Dadap Beach, with structure jutted 200 m from the shoreline to prevent sedimentation. However, currently there has been a massive sediment deposition in the port pool and behind the port. This study aims to determine the sedimentation pattern in Dadap Port, and the influence of the port structure…
