Abstract
For several decades, anthropogenic activities caused environmental and geomorphological issues in the city of Poti, situated on the eastern Coast of the Black Sea. The construction of the Breakwater in the estuary of the northern Rioni River channel affects the transport of silt along the shore, and the paper deals with this topic. After the new Breakwater is built, all fine sediment movement in that direction will be stopped, and solid sediment will start to settle to the north of the new Breakwater. Eventually, this will cause the southern branch of the Nabada Canal to become blocked. The total flow of water from the Nabada canal will be transferred to the northern branch, and the formation of a new delta will begin there.
