Abstract：By taking the Baj iao sea area of Yantai as an example,the influence of break-water construction to seabed sediment scouring and silting environment is studied and e-valuated by numerical simulation and comparison with measured data respectively.The results show that the breakwater construction in the study area can lead to a change of seabed sedimentation from the original equilibrium state into a state of"scouring in the shallow water and depositing in the deepwater",with the scouring and the depositing rates being both 0~0.06 m/a.It is also revealed that the trends of sediment transporta-tion resulted from the numerical calculations and the measurements are basically the same in the study area,except for the boundary areas close to the breakwater.
