1 International Conference of Scour and Erosion Long-term prediction of sediment budgets with dynamic cross-shore migration of sand spits Yoshihiro Hamada Yoshimitsu Tajima Bandula Wickramaarachchi Shinichi Sobue Tomoyuki Nukui Coastal Engineering Lab., The University of Tokyo Coastal Conservation Department, Sri Lanka JAXA

2 Background and Target area /9 1/1 Long-term predictions of sediment budgets and resulting coastal morphology changes are essential for the near-shore development. Serious Erosion on the south west coast of Sri Lanka Influence on Kalpitiya, north west coast of Sri Lanka? 7 km Sri Lanka 1 km Kalpitiya

3 Coastal Erosion in Sri Lanka /1 4m change Shoreline retreated around the sand spits Goal To investigate long-term sediment budgets and dynamic migration of sand spits through the analysis of satellite data and numerical analysis google earth 1km

4 Outline 3/9 3/1 Analysis of Satellite images To capture the overall shoreline changes Wave Estimation(WAM) Wave conditions near Kalpitiya were estimated from wind data Following Funatake et al. (1) Following WAMDI GROUP (1988) Numerical shoreline model Predictions of the observed shoreline changes Influence of sand spits migration

5 Shoreline changes by coral reefs a)from1956 to 1 (a) 4 6 (b) coral reefs b)from 1956 to 1/9 4/1 1 3km km -4-6 (c) 1km 4-1 km Coral reefs position c)from to 1

6 Shoreline changes by coral reefs a)from1956 to 1 (a) 4 6 (b) coral reefs b)from 1956 to 1/9 4/1 1 3km km 1km (c) -4 - Shoreline changes of local accumulation and Coral reefs position erosion km appear to be related to the coral reefs c)from to 1

7 cross-shore seaward distance from PALSAR images analysis PALSAR image from 7 to 1 3m distance along the shoreline cyclone hit the target site during this period overtopping waves were observed by local fisherman large amount of sand was transported behind the spit in 5 in PALSAR As -5 image a result of this event, sand spit was largely deteriorated. 5 5/1 Google Earth

10 Change Influence of sand of sand budgets spit by migration influence of sand spit migration on longshore sediment budgets Compare without migration the sediment transport rate and shoreline with migration changes in two different cases Initial condition from 7 to 47 The same initial condition except for the sand spits km 1 3km 1/1 km 1km -1 km The difference of the results of these two cases should only reflect the influences of sand spit Before migration After migration km -5 5 with migration without migration

11 (m 3 /year) Sediment transport rate comparison the longshore distributions of sediment transport rates a)1 years later Sand Spits with migration without migration (m 3 /year) b)4 years later Sand Spits with migration without migration 11/1 The very little influence of the sandspit migration is observed except the migrated area Alongshore distributions of the cross-shore distance between predicted shorelines with and without migration Sand Spits 1 3 7(initial) 1 years later 4 years later

12 (m 3 /year) Sediment transport rate comparison the longshore distributions of sediment transport rates a)1 years later Sand Spits with migration without migration (m 3 /year) b)4 years later Sand Spits with migration without migration 11/1 The very little influence of the sandspit migration is observed except the migrated area Alongshore distributions of the cross-shore distance between predicted shorelines with and without migration (initial) 1 years later 4 years later The recovery of the deteriorated shoreline is very slow Sand Spits

13 Conclusion 1/1 Long-term process of morphology changes on the west coast of Sri Lanka was investigated through satellite images, wind data and the shoreline model. The observed erosion and accumulation were mainly caused by local unbalance of the sediment transport rates due to coral reefs. Severe stormy event forces landward migration of the sand spit. migration has relatively little impact on the longshore sediment budgets retreated shoreline showed slow recovery processes. It is thus essential to keep the continuous monitoring around Kalpitiya area focusing on sand spit migration and generations of the coral reefs.
