چکیده
Abstract Sidi Abd El-Rahman coastal zone is a hub of luxury tourism along the Mediterranean Sea Egypt. It has several types structures, such as groins, revetments, jetties, and breakwaters connected to shore; these structures were constructed mitigate erosion, recreational activities, other purposes. The study area undergone an extensive erosion process since 2016. Therefore, present aims assess shoreline change rates beach over last 27 years (1995–2022) their impacts on investment in zone. To attain objectives study, multi-temporal satellite images Digital Shoreline Analysis System software have been used detect quantify changes. In addition, most recent real-estate prices estimate economic loss due loss. analysis showed that coast can be divided into four zones, according intensity process. results average rate displacement − 0.08 (± 1.5) m/year (mild erosion), 0.24 1.4) accretion), 1.3 4.3) (moderate erosion) for intermediate periods 1995–2005, 2005–2015, 2015–2022, respectively. lost surfaces dominate those gained by accretion, overall sediment budget negative. beaches Marassi Resort are eroded spot after building new marina at center this resort.
