Abstract

Caofeidian barrier island extends southward into the Bohai Bay in the form of headland, just in front of which there is a deep channel with the largest water depth of 41 m. The formation of the deep channel was based on the old river valley extending from the Haihe River Estuary to the Bohai Sea Strait. The headland topography of Caofeidian barrier island forms the boundary condition of the deep channel, and the obvious velocity increase by headland effect becomes the dynamic condition of the deep channel development. The boundary condition and dynamic condition for the deep channel are almost adaptive for a long time, and the seabed is basically in a state of stability, and the the deep channel is in a state of slight erosion with short sediment supply. In recent years, the development of the Caofeidian harbor area has a significant effect on the evolution of the deep channel. The engineering practice shows that during 2004-2009, the seabed is basically in a state of erosion-deposition equilibrium with slight ersoion, and the deep channel is stable, which proves that the development of the Caofeidian harbor area did not change the boundary and dynamic conditions of the deep channel.
