Abstract: Nearshore marine climate at the Port of Bethioua, located on the west of Algeria, were studied using real-time field data and climatological offshore data obtained from the UK Met Office. Total waves, swells in the offshore are hind-casted separately and were validated using buoy measurements were supplied by UKMO at a nominal cost. Shallow water wave transformations are modelled using the Teluray wave-current model to calculate shoaling, depth refraction and current refraction taking bathymetry and tidal flows from the TELEMAC flow model as inputs. The results are of particular importance in the context of planning of port and safe anchorage and movement and anchoring of vessels in the harbour area, in addition, for future developmental programs at the port of Bethioua.
