Preface

Although t h e t o t a l amount o f water on earth i s generally assumed t o have remained v i r t u a l l y constant, the rapid gr& of population, together w i t h the extension of i r r i g a t e d agriculture and i n d u s t r i a l developnent, are stressing the quantity and q u a l i t y aspects o f t h e natural system. Because of the increasing problems, man has begun t o r e a l i z e t h a t he can no longer follow a 'use and discard' milosophy

Rational water manaçement, hwever, should be founded upon a thorough understanding of water a v a i l a b i l i t y and m o v m t . %us, as a contribution t o t h e solution of the world's water problms, Unesoo, i n 1 9 6 5 , began the first worldwide p r o g r m of studies of the hydrological cycle

the International Hydrological k c a & (IHD). The research programme was complemented by a major e f f o r t i n the f i e l d of hydroloqicai education and t r a i n i n g . The a c t i v i t i e s undertaken w i n g the Decade proved t o be o f great i n t e r e s t and value t o Member Stated. By the end of t h a t period, a majority o f Unesco's Member States had formed IHü National Committees t o carry out relevant national a c t i v i t i e s and t o p a r t i c i p t e i n regional and international c o - o p r a t i o n w i t h i n the IHD progarme. The knowledge of the world's water resources had substantially improved. Hydrology became widely recognized as an independent professional option and f a c i l i t i e s f o r the t r a i n i n g of hydrologists had been developed.

Qnscious of the need t o e x m d upon the e f f o r t i n i t i a t e d during the International Hydrological Decade and f o l l w i n g t h e r e c m n d a t i o r s o f Memt=er States, Unesco, i n 1 9 7 5 , launched a new long-term i n t e r g o v e r m n t a l programme, t h e International Hydrological Programme (IHP) , t o follow t h e Cecade.

Although the M P i s basically a s c i e n t i f i c and educational p r o g r m e , Unesco has been aware from t h e beginning of a need t o d i r e c t i t s a c t i v i t i e s toward the p r a c t i c a l solutions of the world's very r e a l water resources prob- lems. Acmrdingly, and i n l i n e w i t h the r e c m n d a t i o n s o f the 1977 U n i t e d Nations Water anference, the objectives of the International y ï d r o l o i c a l Pro- gramme have been gradually expanckd i n order t o Cover not only hydroloical processes considered i n i n t e r r e l a t i o n s h i p w i t h the environment and hlanan a c t i v i t i e s , but also t h e s c i e n t i f i c a s p c t s of multipurpose u t i l i z a t i o n and conservation o f water resources t o meet the needs of economic and s o c i a l àevelopnent. Thus, w h i l e maintaining IHP's s c i e n t i f i c concept, the objectives have s h i f t e d I p r c e p t i b l y tawards m u l t i d i s c i p l i n a r y aFproach t o t h e assessrent, planning, and r a t i o n a l rrianagenient of water resources.

As p r t o f Unesco's contribution t o the objectives of the IHP, two publi- cation series are issued: 'Studies and R e p r t s i n Hydrology' and 'Technical Papers i n Hydrology'. in addition t o these publications, and in order t o expedite exchange of information i n t h e areas i n which i t i s m s t needed, works of a preliminary nature are issued in the form of Technical Documents.

Introduction

Çeneral SCOR

This nonograph began w i t h the f i r s t session (9-17 A p r i l 1 9 7 5 ) o f the Interna- t i o n a l Hydrological P r o g r m e I n t e r g o v e r m n t a l Council, a f t e r considering the guidelines f o r the 1975-1980 period approved by the Unesco General Conference a t i t s 1 8 t h Session. Project 5 was established t o deal w i t h the evaluation o f hydrological and ecological e f f e c t s of rran's a c t i v i t i e s . Point 6 refers t o the estiniation o f chanqes in the s a l t water-fresh water balance in coastal areas due t o hydraulic works and grounihater exploitation. A s p c i a l focus i s PLI on the study of hydrological studies related t o new eneray sources.

A t the second meeting o f the Intergovernmental Council, held i n Paris on 20-27 June 1977, i t was decided t o re-establish the Working Group on evalua- t i o n of the changes on s a i t water-fresh water balance (surface and under- ground) i n deltas, estuaries and coastal zones, due t o the construction o f structures and t o grouncfwater exploitation (1977-1979) t o prepare a technical note (1975-1977) t o include a general description of the problems, studies and methods t o be used t o evaluate and foresee the changes i n the saltwater-fresh water balancees i n coastal zones as a consequence of human a c t i v i t i e s , w i t h a deadiine o f 1978. Subsequent delays prevented f i n i s h i n g put of the work u n t i l 1982.

A t the t h i r d meeting o f the Working Group, i t was decided t h a t the papr t o be w r i t t e n was t o tx a monograph w i t h wider coverage t o deal w i t h the d i f - ferent a s p c t s needed t o understand coastal water resources. The t i t l e

'Costal water problems' was ado@zed, but the contents s t i l l follow the main s c o p set by the Unesco Council.

The Working Group was i n i t i a l l y formed by A. El-Mugrin (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, groundwater); E. Custodio (Barcelona, S p i n , groundwater); K.G. Lubanirova

(Moscow, USSR, surface water); and K. Sannuganathan (Reading, U.K., surface water). Later G.A. Bruggerran was added (the Ketherlands, groundwater).

a d was entrusted w i t h the a a i m s h i p of the group. Due t o unforeseen circumstances K.G. Lubomirova and A. El-Nugrin could not a c t i v e l y p r t i c i p t e i n the Working Group, and i t was thus reduced t o three people, plus the t e c h i c a i sectre- t a r i a t . V. Cotecchia (Bari, I t a l y , groundwater) was called upon t o h e l p the group as an observer, and p r f o m d a p r t o f the task. Some a i d was also

1. General considerations

E. Custodio

Coastal zones often contain m e of the most densely p p u l a t e d areas i n the world. The a v a i l a b i l i t y o f f l a t land, c m u n i c a t i o n s arteries, easy sea tran-

s p r t a t i o n , good s o i l s , and high productivity o f organic matter e,xplains t h i s f a c t . The areas close t o r i v e r s or deltas generally present the best condi- tions.

The demand f o r fresh water resources resources in areas not d i r e c t l y fed by rivers, and c o m n

.

easily exceed available water supply shortages are Man's a c t i v i t i e s i n t e r f e r e w i t h M t u r a l processes and many physical and biological changes are produced or expected, such as sea water intrusion, the destruction o f the natural habitat or shore modification through erosion and sedimentation.

Also c m n i s the progressive occupation o f w r i o d i c a l l y flooded lands, as w e l l as the desiccation or drainage o f wetlands. I n order t o pro- t e c t these settlements, many types o f c i v i l works are constructed. Tnese easily a l t e r natural processes and have a wide s p c t r m of i n d i r e c t effects.

Many o f these e f f e c t s are not considered or anticipated when the c i v i l works or modifications zre done, and i n mny instances they produce unexpected changes that need new corrective measures or impair existing uses o f natural resources.

The coastal zone i s subject t o more severe and complex issues than most other land and water resources, and must be viewed as an important com- ponent of a water resources system. The coastal zone, as the t r a n s i t i o n area from land t o sea, and from fresh water t o s a l t water, contains sone o f the world's most b i o l o g i c a l l y productive units, the estuaries being the key ele- ment, as shown by the following data (Teal and Teal, 1 9 7 1 ) :

Fresh water f l W J both surface and Imderground, has an important impact u p n the characteristics and q c a l i t y of the productive estuarine, coa- s t a l laqcon and wetlands waters, and upon sedimentary d e p s i t s along the coast.

Associated w i t h man's a c t i v i t i e s are h i s uses, and i n m y instances abuses, o f coastal resources. Tnese w i l l continue t o grow since man w i l l con- centrate h i s a c t i v i t i e s and urban establishmnts along the coasts. By the year 2000 i t i s assumed t h a t more than three quarters of the world's p p u l a - t i o n w i l l be a t or near the mast, and w i l l draw heavily on the already stressed coastal environnent.

The main uses o f coastal areas, including dry lands, marshes, sub- merged land, the surrounding waters and the natural resources, may be classi-

f i e d (üSGR3, 1 9 6 9 ) as:

-

urbanization and developnent (industry, housing, p o r t and harbor)

-

water supply (municipal, agricultural, r e c r e a t i o m l and indus- trial)

-

waste d i s p s a l ( m u n i c i p a l , dorriestic, industrial, a g r i c u l t u r a l )

-

transportation (land, sea, a i r )

-

extraction o f mineral resources ( o i l , gas, sand and gravel)

-

biological resources (fisheries, aquaculture)

-

recreation (beaches, swimming, boating, fishing, scenery, hunting)

-

w i l d l i f e , estuarine and wetland preservation.

Ey f a r , the major impact comes from urbanization and developnent.

The present monograa covers only water resources and the effects of t h e i r exploitation, but the other a s w c t s must be borne i n mind.

Estuarine and groundwater outflow areas have a d i l u t i o n e f f e c t o f sea water salinity t h a t a f f e c t s aquatic l i f e . River use, groundwater exploi- tation, urbanization impact on surface runoff and groundwater recharge niodify the d i l u t i o n p i t t e r n and & f e c t aquatic l i f e accordingly. Surface-groundwater r e l a t i o n s h i p cannot k neglected. Also marshes p s e interesting problems of s o i l s , cultivation, w i l d l i f e , and disease control where groundwater outflow may have a dominant role.

Not only i s water a major compnent of the ccastaï zone, but sand and gravel are also important elements. Dam construction, reforestation and cleforestation, a g r i c u l t u r a l Zevelopnent, urbanization, land erosion control programs, water transportation, r i v e r channelization, sand and gravel extrac- t i o n , etc., have a great e f f e c t on the s o l i d trclnsport and equilibrium i n cca- s t a l areas, e s p c i a l l y i n beaches. Sedimentology i s as imprtant as hydrology and hydrâuics.

(16)

Since uses are v a r i e d and often conflicting, i t i s necessary t o have coastal zone planning and xranagement i n order t o have a r a t i o m l way t o rranage m u l t i p l e coastal resources. Fresh water resources conservation and exploita- t i o n need w e l l established planning so future generations can use them.

The outline of a r a t i o n a l public p l i c y f o r a c o a s t i i zone nust con- si3er d i f f e r e n t factors:

-

&ysical, chemical and biological characteristics

-

urbanization, agriculture, t r a n s p r t a t i o n , industry and develop ment

-

governmental c a p c i t y f o r a6equate p l i c y developent and imple- rnentation.

After Dzurik ( 1 9 7 3 ) , one m u s t consider t h a t neither complete exploi- t a t i o n nor t o t a l preservation i s appropriate or feasible. A balance i s needed and m u s t be m i n t a i n e d i n order t o maximize long-term as w e l l as inmediate benefits through correct and adequate management o f coastal resources w i t h i n the framework o f water resource systems.

Management o f coastal resources cannot be separated f r o m the rrianage- ment o f inland water resources, and the converse i s also true. Although a narrow s c o p i s frequently necessary i n dealing w i t h resource and water prob-

l e m ~ , the subsystem should be understood w i t h i n the framework of the larger resource system. The Aswan High Dam i s now a classic example o f the great changes and damages which can occur t o coastal resources through disregard or i n s u f f i c i e n t consideration o f the interaction o f r i v e r and coastal waters.

But unfortunately i t i s not the only example, and a long l i s t o f f a i l u r e s , t o t a l or p a r t i a l , can be easily gathered both i n developd high technology countries and i n developing countries under colonial or n a t i o r d r u l e .

Not a i l changes i n inland waters are damaging t o coastzd resources or the whole system. When changes and uses are necessary, they should include the evaluation a€ the t o t a l possible effects and the correction of the nega- t i v e a s p c t s , without impairing others.

Pollutants generated by m ' s a c t i v i t i e s gather i n the Oceans as a final receptacle, and they are frequently t r a p p d and physically or biologi- cally concentrated i n estuarine zones. The long-term e f f e c t s can be serious and irreversible. Along many urban centers, coastal waters are used as a sump f o r i n d u s t r i a l and domestic waste d i s p s a l , and thus has k e n ruined f o r most other uses. Prime ecological systems, recreation areas, natural surface and underground storage systems have been eliminated needlessly through lack o f adequate planning and management. ?he Mediterranean area has been subjected t o many such negative a s p c t s .

Acute problems may appear i n developing countries, especially in those subject t o t r o p i c a l climates, i n islands and when the population density and b i r t h rate are very high. The recent acquisition of independence or broad aLtonony has generated great hopes among the p p u l a t i o n s f o r the improvemtnt

As a sunnnary, Unesco's Man and the Bios@,ere Programme ( M I , 1974) enunerated the follcwing characteristics of t h e coastal environment t h a t make i t vulnerable t o hurrian i m p c t :

-

land-sea interactions, both c y c l i c a l and unidirectional;

-

productivity and the n u t r i e n t t r a p effect. Nutrient l e v e l s are usually enhanced due to. intensive r e q c l i n g processes, but those factors are also r e s p n s i b l e f o r t h e i r conversion t o p l l u t i o n sinks ;

-

fod-web structure;

-

v u l n e r a b i l i t y o f coastal zone organisms;

-

sedimntation control i n the environment;

-

w r t a n c e of freshwater i n f l o w ;

-

epidemiological characteristics. Human and animal pathogens find favorable conditions f o r t h e i r m u l t i p l i c a t i o n i n d e l t a i c coastal areas, such as malaria, noxious mosquitoes, arbviroses, ame- biosis, choleria, enterobacterioses, leptospiroses, schisto- somioses, oncocercoses, etc.

These a s p c t s are beyond the scope o f the present monogram and w i l l not be considered further.

only fresh groundwater resources w i l l be considered from the hydro- l o g i c point o f view.

Sea water encroachment problems i n coastal aquifers have been recog- nized since the f i r s t quantitative studies a t the turn of the century, and have not teen considered an important separate aspect of groundwater hydrclcgy u n t i l recently. A good h i s t o r i c a l discussion on what i s known about s a l t water i n t r u s i o n can be found i n Kashef ( 1 9 7 2 ) , and same a s p c t s of the developnent w i l l be given i n section 3 . 1 .

Probably the f i r s t classical book t o inclu& a chapter on quantita- t i v e aspects of sea water encroachment i n coastal aquifers i s t h a t o f Todd ( 1 9 5 8 ) . The U.S. Geological Survey Water-SuFply Paper 1613-C (Cooper e t a l . 1 9 6 4 ) was also an b n p r t a n t k n c h r k .

Perhaps one of the f i r s t international meetings t o include sea water i n t r u s i o n problems expressly was the Haifa Sympsim orgznized by the Interna- t i o r a l Association of S c i e n t i f i c Hydrology (Pub 92)

The great length o f coasts requires t h a t a srrial1 but s i g n i f i c a n t p a r t of the continental water discharged t o the oceans outflows d i r e c t l y from the ground.

A much greater p r t discharçes t o the lower t r a c t s of rivers, i n areas where coastal conditions prevail.

The t o t a l d i r e c t discharge of groundwater i n t o the oceans i s a speculative f i g u r e since no &rect rreasures can be made. Frequently the discharge in a given coastal area i s obtained from the residual t e r m i n the groundwater balance, and i t accumulates a l l the errors. The resulting figure, generally small r e l a t i v e t o other terms i n the balance, i s not reliable.

Since the hydroqeological and hydrodynamical data along the ccast are generally inaccurate, Zekster and Czhamalov (1981b) mde an e s t i m t e by applying t o the discharcje. along the coast the same s p c i f i c figures obtained for the lower t r a c t s of the rivers. Most of the fresh groundwater discharge correspnzs t o the shaîïow aquifers. The values, i n i/s/km2 of surface con- tributing t o the ccast, vary from as high as 1 4 l/s/km2 i n very permeable materials i n areas w i t h normal-to-high r a i n f a l l . t o as l o w as l e s s than 0.2 l/s/km2 i n cold or warm a r i d arecis. !$‘he results are reproduced i n table 2.1.

The above f i g u r e refers t o the shoreline, which has a macroscopic aspect given by the i n i t i a tyFe o f dissection, and a microscopic aspect t h a t depnds on the sinuosiw, produced mainly by wave action. The n m k r o f micro and macro elements of the shoreline i s described by a rLqcedness or sinuosity index (Auphan, 1971) , t h a t relates the lexgth of the shoreline t o the length o f the corresponding seqents o f the shore and coast.

The shore can be considered as the zone bounded by the seâward and the landward water l i m i t i n g lines. The length i s measured by the smoothed median curve. An allowance i s mde f o r the microelements i n plan, mainly due t o wave action.

The coast i s defined similarly, but the d e f i n i t i o n must consider the such as heads o f f i o r d s and r i a s , o p n lagoons and continental macroelemnts,

When considering the shore and the coast lengths, the perimeter of the World Ocean i s reduced t o 469,000 and 413,000 km, r e s p c t i v e l y . Tables 2.2 and 2.3 show the importance and ruggedness of the d i f f e r e n t types of shores (according t o the abrasion-accretion process) and coast (according t o t h e i r mormologicaï o r i g i n ) , given by the work of Luk'yanova and Kholodilin

However i t i s necessary also t o consider hydrodynamic conditions (water table, confined systems, SerniconEining layers, l o w lands, etc.), t h a t can greatly influence relationships. Sea b t t o m sediments also can play an imprtant role.

(23)

From the hydrcgeolcgical p i n t of view not all coast t y p s have the sane importance, since those of hard, l c w fractured rocks (granites, gneiss) are a l m s t imprductive, while terrace d e p s i t s and great recent sedincntary k s i n s have a c l e a r l y overwhelming interest.

The f o l l w i n g c l a s s i f i c a t i o n i s adoned:

(a) Unconsolidated materials (glaciated, a l l u v i a l , marine an2 eolian), mainly accretiorial, a b u t 25% of t o t a l coast.

( a i ) water table (a21 s r d l islands (a31 confined (a4 semiconf ined (a 5 ) multilayered (a61 young deltas

b i ) fissured hard rocks b2) k a r s t i f i e d rocks

Other factors t o te considered i n subclassifications are:

-

sea behavior ( t i d a l regime, storm surges, wzve action, sea bottom sedimnts 1

-

c l i m t e (wet tropical, semi-arid, t a n p r a t e , mediterranean;

-

-

long-term evolution (sea water tranqressions or regressions, sub- sidence).

n-ie min source of s a i t i n coastal areas i s sea water. Sea water has a rather constant chemical composition except f o r mal1 changes due t o the variable e v a p r a t i o n rates (higher i n the tropics and the Pediterranean ) or great con- t i n e n t a l fresh water contributions (Caribbean ) . Greater differences can be found i n closed or half-closed seas such as the B a l t i c , the Caspian, the Black Sea, etc.
