Abstract

sediment transport is one of the most important coastal processes that most effective environmental factors in relation to it include waves , flows , winds , and changes of the coast environment by man . in this study, the tidal currents and their effect on sediment transport on the dock of 38 Bandar Imam were studied. for this purpose, two stations were selected to measure different parameters such as sediment concentration at 2 km distance in the study area and was measured in two periods of spring and neep. the results showed that the maximum mean sediment concentration (Mmsc) at the first station in spring was 0.42 kg/m3 and the minimum value (mv) was 0.18 kg/m3 and at the second station the Mmsc was 0.43 kg/m3 and the mv was 0.1 kg/m3. also in neep the Mmsc at the first station was 0.37 kg/m3 and the mv was approximately 0.2 kg/m3. at the second station Mmsc was 0.4 kg/m3 and the mv was 0.135 kg/m3.
