| Abstract | ||
| The coast and the seabed of North-West Arabian Gulf marine water have a uniquehydrodynamic and sedimentary environment,due toits morphological shapeand the hydrological effects of shatt Al Arab –karun river system and Shatt Al Basrah –khor Al-Zubair chanal ,besides other khors nearby the study area .All these variabls are considered as acontributing factorsin sediment yield of the study area. A high dust fallout contribution in the area and sand bars extension along the longtituinal axis of khor Abddullah lead to wide variations in sediment grain size distribution from silty clay to sandy mud textures.These phenomena conferming high hydrodynamic activities in the study area. Clay minerals identification indicates that the occurence of illite mineral is due to rapid sedimentation processes ,and a kolinite mineral origin is from eaolian source. | ||
