Abstract :
During December 1996, 27 sampling stations were explored along the coastal zone in front of Alexandria situated between El-Agamy beach in the West and Abu-Qir headland in the East. Also, current measurements have been obtained by using current meter and Drougs. The dispersion coefficient Kx and Ky of water during the time of measurements in front of Alexandria were calculated. A predictive model based on the equations described by Bonazountas (1987) was applied to estimate initial dilution and wastewater field in front of Alexandria coastal zone.
