Abstract The present study deals with the type and distribution of sediments on the marginal shelf area from Ras El-Barr to Port Said and until adepth of 6m below sea level. Sea bottom samples collected in 1971 and 1974 along 16 profiles have been kindly provided by the Coastal Erosion Protection Project.The samples were investigated for textural and mineralogical composition.Percentage frequency maps showing the relative distribution of gravel, sand, mud, carbonate, gran size parameters and the different mineral constitunts of the sediments on this marginal shelf area have been constructed and interpreted. |
