Abstract
ABSTRACT AL-HULAIL, F and NEELAMANI, S., 2011. The Variation of Total Suspended Sediments Due to the Change in Sea Water Depth, Tidal Phase and Elevation of Sea Water Sample Collection in Khor Sabiya Inlet of the Arabian Gulf, Kuwait.

Maintenance dredging of about 400,000 m3/year of silt and clay is carried out with a total annual maintenance cost of about 1.4 million Kuwaiti Dinar. There is a proposal to increase the seawater intake for a proposed 2050 MW additional power plant and hence further increase in the TSS settlement is anticipated, if the present sea water intake system is used. Alternative types of seawater intake systems, which can reduce the entry of total suspended sediments, is explored. Before ...
