DEFINITION OF REASON OF VILLAGE ANAKLIA FLOODING
Abstract
In the presented article the reason of the village Anaklia territory, the site of the planned construction of a deep-sea commercial port- flooding is discussed. It should be noted that the village mainly is located on the sandy shore of the river mouth of river Enguri. In calm, but rainy weather, precipitation practically freely penetrates through the sandy soil without leaving any water holes and flooded land areas after the rain. However, on March 24-25, 2021, in rainy weather and stormy seas, the village was partially inundated by rainy water, due to which the first floors of residential buildings and hotels were flooded, and significant damage was caused to residents of such places. Therefore, this extraordinary case aroused a certain interest in order to develop a preventive measure to exclude a possible recurrence of the noted phenomenon. In our case during the storm, the top of the wave crest was elevated over the mean sea level to 3.5 meters, caused partial blockage of river Enguri runoff, due to which the water level in the river arose and seeped into the sandy layer to the ground. In article, the quantitative data of the theoretical calculations of the wave parameters that led to the development of this phenomenon are presented.
