Soil Investigation and Oceanography Survey for Sand Deposits on Panjang Isand

Construction and engineering activities carried out in a coastal area in the form of coastal protection development (breakwater, jetty), reclamation, as well as mining of sea sand for landfill reclamation purposes will affect the stability (equilibrium) of the coastal morphology of the area and its surroundings. In connection with the extraction of sea sand, the reduction in dredging sand at the mining location will result in changes in bathymetry which results in changes in the hydro oceanographic pattern. Changes in hydro oceanographic patterns on a coast can result in excessive erosion in the area and its surroundings.
