【 摘 要 】

In recent decades, there were sharp changes in the global climate, acceleration of the global sea level rise, high population density and investment in coastal areas. This led to improve the knowledge of hydrodynamic processes and morphological conditions in the coastal zone of the seas and oceans. In this article, hydrodynamic characteristics of the coast of the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea, in particular, the Syrian coast are discussed. Despite the lack of historical data, but recently there have been detailed empirical studies of this coast, applying periodic monitoring and using of modern technologies for modeling and forecasting changes in the shoreline over time. This article describes the hydrological characteristics of the sea water, characteristics of prevailing winds, specification of sea waves, currents and vortexes, properties of marine bottom soil and the analysis of the results of topographic survey of the bottom. Thus, we got the necessary basis for understanding the dynamics of this beach, assessing its degree of stability, identifying the areas under threat of erosion or accumulation, determining the optimal method of coastal protection and the optimal investment and planning for the future.
