Abstract:The bene®cial role of rubble mound coastal structures on oxygenation under the eect of waves is discussed, based on analytical considerations and experimental data from laboratory experiments with permeable and impermeable structures. Signi®cant oxygenation of the wave-protected area was observed as a result of horizontal transport through the permeable structure. A two-cell model describing the transport of dissolved oxygen (DO) near a rubble mound breakwater structure was developed and used for the determina… Show more
