Abstract
:
Sharm (Bay) sailed a slot located on the seaside, 35 km north of Jeddah is a tourist attraction of modern urban life has grown steadily to its shores since the eighties. This research aims to assess the impact of human activities on the natural environment to the Sharm el-through the following strategy: • Follow up and monitor the morphological changes on the coast using aerial photographs and satellite images available. • to do underwater photography to document the pollution. • Conduct analysis on the sediment to assess sediment changes. • The use of some geochemical indicators to assess the sources of sediment. The study showed that the Sharm suffers from significant changes since the eighties where the reduced area of Sharm in the period between 1986 2000 m about 800 × 10 m any that is equivalent to 60.000 m per year as a result of buried coral reefs and a citizen of growth. There were also changes in the physical and chemical properties of bottom sediments. The underwater photography that the bottom is covered with thick litter, which consists mainly of plastic waste and mineral commonly used (plastic and glass bottles, metal cans, tires), which attest to the absence of adequate environmental awareness. The study concluded that to make some proposals to reduce the degradation of environment and Sharm are summarized in the following points: * Implementation of a monitoring program to measure the hydrochemical characteristics in the water as well as some chemical contaminants in sediments and organisms. * Stop or reduce the reclamation and destruction of reefs and their environment. * Pour off any residue in the area of Sharm. * Conduct research projects for the rehabilitation of coral reefs. * Campaigns to increase environmental awareness among the public especially with regard to the marine environment.
