Abstract
Masuda port is located in both sides of the mouth of Takatsu River, the access channel of which passes behind a river-mouth bar. This study intends to develop a tool for examination of countermeasures against channel infilling which is very linked with deformation of river-mouth bar. First, the relation between the sand bar deformation and channel infilling has been examined for the river mouth area of Takatsu River through analysis of aerial photos, current and wave data, bathymetric survey data, and so on. As the results, two dominant processes of flushing sand bar due to flood and reformation of sand bar by waves are confirmed. Also, numerical simulations for the two dominant processes have been conducted and the reproducibility of the model has been examined.
