Summary: | Seribu (Thousand) Islands is a patch reef complexes off Jakarta Bay that have
experienced severe erosions. A recent study advises that monsoonal wind-induced
wave surf actions are thought to contribute to this by causing seasonal change of
beach line positions. This research is intended to understand the pattern of the
sand movement transport around a coral island’s beach line. A two-dimensional
numerical simulation is applied in order to understand the near shore current
under different wind scenario, i.e. NW and SE monsoons. It is found that the net
neap-spring current vectors resulted from the simulation show directional trend,
which fits well the hypothetical directional pattern of seasonal sand movement.
The result of this study has helped to complement recent findings on changes of
beach line and development of sand spit on the focal point of which are based on
the interpretation of remote sensing imagery in different epochs |
