Morpholithodynamic conditions of the tip of the Hel Peninsula, the Baltic Sea

100%

The Hel Peninsula is a 35 km long spit that extends into water depths of almost 60 m. Unlike most sandy barriers, the distal end of the Hel Peninsula is prograding into the deep water. This affects unique conditions for the evolution of this section of the Peninsula. The aim of this study is to determine the morpholithodynamic changes on the tip of the Hel Peninsula. Shore studies were performed in 2006-2008 and 2012. Measurements included: beach profiling, determination of shoreline and dune base line positions, and collection of sediment samples. The different nature of the eastern, central and western part of the Hel tip is evident. The eastern part is accumulative, the central part is variable with the general nature of strong and differently directed redeposition and accumulative periods, while the western part is highly erosive.

Submarine landslides on the slope of a sandy barrier : A case study of the tip of the Hel Peninsula in the Southern Baltic

The aim of the study is to present the occurrence of landslides on the submarine slope of a sandy barrier. The scale and significance of this phenomenon is discussed. The study area is the Hel Peninsula. It is a 35 km long young sandy spit. The landform is prograding into the deep part of Gdańsk Bay, and the underwater extension of its tip is a steep sandy slope. The tip is still poorly investigated, as it was a military area closed to researchers until 2003. The first detailed survey of the tip on the seabed was conducted aboard the research vessel “IMOR”. A multibeam echosounder, a sub-bottom profiler and a side-scan sonar were used, while grab and core samples of sediment were obtained. Many forms, commonly created as the result of underwater mass movement, were recognized and determined (main scarps, main bodies, landslide steps, landslide foots, series of small slides, “sheet” slides and structural slides). On the one hand, the landslide processes that occur in the tip of the Hel Peninsula are related to the natural development of sandy spits. On the other hand, they threaten the shore’s stability. The genesis of the landslides is still not known.
